Making this step is great ! Realizing you need to talk to someone and accepting your "blah attitude" could possibly be depression. Try not to worry about whether the T is a "good one", its very hard to figure that out for quite some time after starting to see them. If you go in, wondering "Ok - is SHE right for me", it could hinder your ability to get started with the actual therapy. SURE there are bad T's , but many more are GOOD ones than bad. Dont put alot of thought into that part now, think about the getting better part, the feeling better part, the accepting of help, etc. Be OPEN to therapy, and like has been posted by others, sometimes it seems the first few weeks are no more than "gab sessions", thats OK . I wish u all the best, and hoping that you soon feel much better !
