Thank you. It was fine. I'm not sure if we 'connected'. I didn't feel a dislike or anything and I did like her attentive gaze and note-taking. She apologized for the notes, but I told her I liked to see her scribbling. It makes me feel taken seriously and ensures she won't ask the same question about whether or not I have siblings - which happened to me the last time I tried therapy, and I found it very off-putting.

I might go to the other one I have scheduled too, just to see. I feel a bit like I'm cheating on them though, how silly. Or maybe I hope that a double dose will help me get there quicker! There's a thought! Go to 2 therapists at the same time and speed things up.

Anyway, it must mean something that I'm happier to navel-gaze than try to fix a relationship by myself.
