Your description of your anxiety sounds a lot like what my first counselor said to me. First she had trouble even seeing that I was anxious at all because I keep it soooo locked up from the outside world.
I get what you said about hoping it wasn't that bad. Just remember, your t's comment doesn't change your feeling. Your anxiety doesn't get worse because of what she said. Perhaps you can see it as a validating point, that you are worthy if t's time, not sure if you've struggled with that at all.

Do you worry that if your t hadn't met someone with as much anxiety as you that she will be unable to help you? Because that would definitely be something to bring up with t, something she could offer reassurance for.

I'm at the same point wondering if I should reach out. Try to sit with yourself for a bit, but know that she's there if you need her to find your footing
Thanks for this!
