Group therapy starts Thursday! I'm so nervous. I do not know what to expect. I'm very awkward around tears and I'm scared someone will cry and they will be angry with me because of my response. Will they except me? What will my therapist think when she sees me in the group? This is really out of my comfort zone. I'm scared that my response to tears will make the people in the group angry with me. Then I will feel embarrassed and not want to return. My therapist says I can't walk out of the room but if I'm upset that may be what I want to do. I know I have to face my fear of everything but I'm scared. What if my therapist judges me after seeing me in the group session? Has anyone ever been in group therapy? How was it? Did people cry? What did the other people do while the one was crying? What was the therapist doing? How did the group therapy time frame end? Were you all friends or did you all go your own separate ways? Clearly I'm scared and anxious. I have less than 48 hours to figure this all out and I am worried.
