mental health questionnaires
This indicate i need help?

I’ve rejected help before, but recently i have accepted it. This is what i don’t understand
I had meetings with my counselor, then i had another person come up about my mental health, then i had the mental health team come up and ask me all sorts of weird questions, now my counselor comes up and sees me, but has wanted me to answer a questionnaire the psychiatrist wanted answering.
