Well, I didn't think I'd be strong or smart enough to do the things that I have been doing for the past few weeks, it was really hard for me and scary too... it's not as severe as your situation, so I think that it'd be dumb of me to say that I know how you feel, but what I basically did was in my head I'd set up a date when it absolutely had to be done with absolutely no exceptions. I put it a few days into the future so it has some time to process (think about what you are going to say, and yeah, probably freak out a little too) and then when that day comes just pick a moment, any moment really when your guts tells you it's right, gather as much strength and composure as you possibly can, and then talk. Yeah, even in the moments right before that couple of seconds I was practically terrified, but composing yourself beforehand really does help (and maybe just for a moment I felt fearless?  ). It's like instead of going into cold water inch by inch and trying to get acclimated to the water to just jump in and get it over with and you'll be warm again from the swimming in a couple of minutes.
