sometimes family and friends can’t do for you what a professional can. don’t the friends and families have their own headaches that they have to care for? why ever would they pay attention to someone else when their own world is falling apart? in that case it’s better to go to professional whose job is to not only listen to you, but also help you. and they have years and years of training to do that. it’s not like a 16 year old helping a 15 year old, or an aunty who’s really seen her own life and is giving advice to someone else who ha ssomething competely different going on in her own life. you have go to get out of your own little world and not talk about stuff you’ve only heard about 
and no. they don’t go on trees. they have to pay oodles of their own money to learn methods to help others. family on the other hand does go on trees. every corner you turn around you have another far off relative who is there to judge you, not help you.
saadia3877, pray for sure. nothing can help you more than God. But if you honestly feel like you have no other option left, no one can help you or can properly hear you, then do seek counselling. go to a therapist, a psychologist, not a psychiatrist. but remember, going to a psychologist is not like psychiatrist. pills work really quickly, so it seems like stuff is perfect again. on the other hand, going to psychologist is a long process, since the methods they use take a while. it’s not a process that takes 2 days to make you feel better. there are also many psychologists who come from our background, so they would be able to help you better. start at the website for APA, they will help you find a psychologist in your area. as for making the patients come back again and again to them to make money, i don’t believe it. they want to help you, but it might feel like they are making you come back because the methods are slow, but they are worthwile.
if you don’t want to go talk to one person, look for group therapies. those are usually lead by a psychologist, and there you have others who have gone through your situation. other ways are talking to someone at your local masjid, a good imam. and if you have a culture center around you, look for such places there as well. for example we have a Muslims Center at my local city center, which offers help to the local muslims. they could redirect you to a professional.
