I'm 19 and I've been seeing a psychologist for about 9 months. I know this is a long time and I should already be comfortable to share things with her but that's not the case. I'm already a REALLY shy and reserved person as it is and it takes me a LONG time to warm up to anyone. I've been having a lot of anxiety before every session, and unfortunately I have one today in like 3 hours. I dont want to go, I dont want to discuss personal matter with a stranger. Usually I just answer like one word answers to what she asks me. Luckily she's really patient and knows that I'm shy and has told me that i've come a long way from where I started.

So I guess what I'm asking is, is it normal for it to take this long to still warm up to a therapist? Should I just quit? I dont want to because in some aspects it has helped a lot.

What should I do?
