I'm glad you got up and went to work, etc. even feeling so crummy and hopeless. That's one of the best things in the world I learned in therapy to help myself; feelings keep changing, like weather. You feel hopeless now but in a bit that feeling will change and something will come along and you'll be engaged again.

I'm glad your first session went well and you like your therapist and have decided to be honest and up front with her too.
