I absolutely hate this question in therapy, or the other "How can I help you today? " I never know the answer to this so I just say I don't know. My therapist asked me this on Wednesday and said he knows I need a supportive ear but what else do I need?

I don't know how to actually say to anyone that I just need them to be there, to listen and not judge.To let me just cry and be supportive of what I'm going through. My husband has been calling me an emotional train wreck the past 2 weeks. I'm crying everyday. I worry that I should be in the hospital but then that might just be me wanting to escape the stress lately. I just don't know what to say to my therapist.
