Em is right!! I still struggle with this 10 months into it...but I was SO close to quitting many times. I would go home and be like "This is stupid. I can barely talk about anything in there. I'm wasting her time, my time and money, and maybe I just don't feel like most others! I'm fine!"

I told myself though that I would keep showing up, and that is what I've been doing. Slowly the giant gulf in the room has shrunk, and I don't sit every other minute in silence going "Yeah, I don't know what to say" I still have a long way to go as I told my T last week that "I don't have intense emotional feelings." I still don't think I really do...but she tends to disagree The one nice thing I've taken away is that she just accepts whatever I say no matter how irrational I'm being. It has been disconcerting, and yet has slowly worked itself into my brain.

Just let that steady support and acceptance work on you, because I don't know how---it does even when I fight it! Ha.
