How do you get through that in therapy? Is this something I should disclose at the start of a new relationship?

Yes tell your therapist this is one of the things you struggle with. It sounds scary to do, but it can be such a relief to have it out there where you both know about it. It would be very helpful to the therapist to know this so s/he can help you with it.

SingleGirl, this is an admirable goal and so important.

I also am committed to not stopping (running away from) therapy this time. And lucky for me, early in the relationship, my T told me to "trust the process" when I was feeling discouraged.

Everything you wrote here, all your concerns and fears about therapy, the therapist.... share them with your therapist when you have them; they are all important.

Are you excited too?!
