Persons suffering emotional illness often are hesitant to trust others. Yet they must bridge this gap if they're toreceive help. It's an evolving process that is made easier by encountering and interacting with empathetic, engaged, and experienced professionals. In addition, those professionals must be flexible, open-eared as well as open-minded if they truly desire to understand the person they're trying to help. This process begins at the first appointment when a psychiatrist must help the seeker answer the most important of questions: Can we really talk? Can I trust him? Can he help me? Will he help me?
