And I'm nervous in case he just thinks I'm wasting his time or something. I've been fairly stable for a little while but it wasn't that long ago that I wasn't stable. When I am stable I often feel like why am I in therapy but when I'm not stable then I know why I am in therapy.

Hi Kit, Almost anyone would be nervous, seeing a new T. Sheesh, I've been seeing mine for 2 years and I still get nervous.

I think writing down the above paragraph and either reading it to him or remembering to bring up the pertinent points would be a really good start, because you've outlined your presenting concerns in those sentences.

I hope your appointment goes really well. Let us know!
