It definitely took me by surprise, and I didn't feel comfortable talking about the stuff she wanted to. But, I went back the next week (mostly because of my mom's prodding) and my T took it a lot slower. First appointments are tough because the therapist feels like they need to know exactly what has happened to you, so that they can figure out a treatment plan. I think that your next one will be more laid back. Still important, but maybe more comfortable for you than the last one. Anyways, good luck! I'll be thinking about you!!
Thanks for this!
