You are nothing you've said. You're having a hard time voicing things you feel - that is normal. (At least it is for me too).

I do recommend printing off your post and writing anything she says question-wise and answering them on paper and bringing it with you the next session.

Great idea to print off your posts.

And you can't fail therapy! Think of it as getting your money's worth. Your therapist must work harder or try a different approach, or just let you sit until you are ready to speak.

I write down the things I cannot bring myself to say. Then I make her rip it up - she can use her own notes for her file.

Maybe your therapist is not the right personality for you. I have in the past felt uncomfortable with some therapists for no other reason except for the "vibes" I have felt (not a logical way of finding a therapist), but if I don't feel right, I don't feel right. I don't try to analyze that; I don't have time. I just look for another therapist.

Therapy is hard. Very, very hard.

I hope things will feel better for you tomorrow.
