Hang in there. It can be very scary, but in the long run you will benefit.

Maybe you could try some relaxation techniques. There are several videos on YouTube to help you do that. I usually use an app I downloaded to my phone.

Hello & Welcome, Lostwriter98. Consider looking through the Psychotherapy Forum for other folks' experiences starting with psychologists and therapists.

I wish you well!
