Maybe he can suggest a group (I know not for everyone), that you might be able to take part in that will give you some extra support.

If there is a Mental Health Association near you, (there is an awesome one in my area), reach out and see what they have to offer. They are non-profit and generally run on donations/funding. The one in our area has lots of resources, and provides volunteer opportunities too. Try to build up your support network. I know, it's hard, and honestly I need to take some of my own advice.
Firstly, I have struggled with always feel unimportant/not good enough my whole life. It's one of my issues, heck I wont even buy myself a new pair of shoes unless they are actually falling apart. I always buy on sale too. It's one of the issues I am sure I have to work on but I made this post in hopes of actual advice on how to work through this fear and keep committing to going, which I didn't get. None the less...I will go tomorrow and discuss it there with him.

Secondly....that is a great idea but I also struggle with bad trust issues and meeting new people. We are also working on that. I don't think I can get much new support in my life until I learn to become more trusting of others

Thanks for your nice reply though I'll see how things go tomorrow
