I feel worse. I feel like I didn't do what I was supposed to do. I'm so afraid to just let go. I feel I wasted that session. I've never just let my emotions go in front of someone before. I love my T and I trust him, I just don't want him to see me like that. I don't know what I'm going to do. Could it have been too big of a abuse situation? What am I going to do? There's a part of me just saying forget it, I can't do it. Another part says you have to or you won't survive. I'm too far into the therapy now to stop.
Help!

I can understand how you're feeling very well. Opening up and talking about taboo thoughts and experiences takes a lot of strength and courage. It's great that you're feeling comfortable enough to share! If this is your first time talking about these experiences, I would expect it to take a bit of time to get through the anxiety. You didn't waste time or energy at all.
Very best wishes to you ~ take care
