I cannot even begin to explain how many times I have struggle with that. Seriously. It's terrifying and I get that 10000%. My T and I have been talking about vulnerability and safety a lot lately but we also talk a lot about the benefits of being vulnerable, things like personal growth and connection with others....that doesn't make it any less scary though.... I am pretty sure that therapy requires an abundance of 2 things, the strength to walk into a T's office and the courage to keep going when things get difficult. I know its difficult and stressful and confusing but, judging from your posts, I think you are doing a fantastic job.
