Hi Ashley, it's OK to feel overwhelmed you clearly put a lot out there and that's a really big thing (plus WELL DONE!!) the main thing is: "it went pretty well"!!! Now that is SO good, isn't it??!!! AND you have some positive things to take away with you!!!
But for right now, you've laid so much out on the line for a "stranger" that's got to be really intense, that's got to bring you back to everything going on for you.
Maybe before while you've really have been recognizing things you've been doing it at a comfortable/"safer" distance and bit by bit instead of "full on" as this has been. And all the sessions won't necessarily be as "full on" as this.
But just don't lose sight of/dismiss how far you actually have come and the strength you have in all of this.
Yes, you need help, we want help for you (!!) but that doesn't make you weak, that doesn't mean you haven't any control in this. To me anyway, you are strong, you are taking ownership of working towards getting/using support with what you're feeling/with what you're going through.
And hey, there's no-one more worthy of getting help than you!!
