To me he was just giving you a simple response that was to reassure you that you are not being judged, to take care of yourself and he will be there for you. Some people don't do well with writing too much and prefer to do face to face therapy/comforting/and support.

I think you should write down how you feel whenever you struggle, allow yourself to calm down because you did take a chance with this, and yes, thats a big deal for you. You can even use this thread if you need to, whatever you need to do we all support you and are here to offer you "comfort". Most of us do know how hard it is to open up, you are being "very brave".
