Well, I had my first session today. I was able to talk about alot of my history. I was dissapointed when it was over especially since I was in the middle of a story. But now I know where I'll be starting next time. We were setting up the next meeting and when he said next week my heart sank cause I didn't feel like I could wait that long. But then he when on to say "or latter this week?" Obviously I opted for this week and I was relieved. I think it was good that I'd seen a couselor a long time ago and talked to a few pastors so it wasn't totally new for me to tell my story. However, I was so nervous, which he picked up on. It would have been nearly impossible not to notice. I'm relieved that he seems intelligent and he also seems to notice that I'm rather intelligent too.
Ok, so I'm really glad I finally got to meet him and it went really well. Its funny, cause I went over so much and yet as soon as I left I started thinking of so many other things I want to mention. The bummer is that this was just the initial consultation so its not like he's giving me any advice yet or anything to think about or work on. Like part of my problem is not being able to sleep so for now I still am going to have that problem.
So, I just wanted to share my experience.
