Psychologist or psychiatrist?
A psychologist or therapist helps through talk therapy: understanding what you feel and learning practical ways to cope. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can also assess whether medication may help.
If you're not sure, start with a psychologist. They will tell you if seeing a psychiatrist would help.
