text: Getting multiple opinions from different people is a great option. It gives you more options to work with in the long run. When it comes down to it you might need those other options because the one you have tried just didn't work out how you planned. when I was younger I used too deal with serious family problems, I would always go to my grandma for advice. She always knew what to say and what would help cheer me up, but there were sometimes when her advice just wasn't what I was looking for. So I would go talk to other family members including my grandpa, brother, and aunt, but I didn't just talk to family members about my problems. I realized that I needed a counselor, so I went and got one and surprisingly they helped a lot more than I expected.
