Hi Suzzie,
I think exploring this is a good start, even if it takes a long time.
Try to be patient with yourself (I know that can be hard to do sometimes!)
Journaling is a good idea and might help bring some things to the surface.
Once you can figure out some specific things you want to work on or improve in your day to day life, that will help you set some goals and direction for your counseling.
Try to think of this as a starting point.
I thought I'd throw out a few general questions you could think about. These may be way off base so forgive me if they don't make sense for you.
Is there any thing that causes you anxiety?
Do have a support system in real life, and if not, do you know why not?
Are your personal relationships healthy and satisfying?
How are your coping skills? - are you able to feel and deal with anger, fear, etc?
Do you have things in your life that you love do to and that you look forward to?
I am not expecting you to answer all of these here, but maybe will give you a way to start thinking about what you want to get out of counseling. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out (if you want to)
