I feel pretty good about how my second therapy session (with this T) went today even though I went in there very discouraged about myself after getting into a fight with my husband yesterday over an anxiety attack that spiraled out of control. I HATE that. My fear makes me act outside my real character, and after that I can't stand to face people who have seen it. I am so embarrassed to behave that way! And I feared breaking down at therapy, which I did, but it had to be done.
I accomplished 2 missions today and I feel a lot better. #1) we discussed that I'm interfering with my own healing by not being forthcoming with my symptoms and identified that it is out of not wanting to be a bother. #2) I let her know that my medicine is not controlling my symptoms well enough for me to feel comfortable being out in public.
And, as a bonus, I got a compliment for taking the initiative to find this site and a fibromyalgia support group to help me express my frustrations and get advice without feeling like I'm putting too much burden on my family and for identifying several things that I do to help calm myself down.

I almost feel like my confidence has been turned up a notch
