Starting therapy next tues. I am very nervous. My job have been good to me about everything. I am trying to get prepared for the worse. All those crazy feelings never had to deal with before.

My entire life have been tragic which means going have to re-live everything. I pushed everyting deep down in a deep hole. I know its time to get started. Just many nerves surfacing.
 
Well done! Being brave enough to start is a big thing.

You don't have to re-live it all at once, just start with one thing. You therapist should help you pace it all at a manageable level. Let us know how you get on.
 
This is scary but you are on the path to recovery. Some people have to shop around for a good therapist fit but maybe your t will be great and work well with you. But by re-living everything, you will feel better in the end. The journey can have a few bumps but the final outcome will be so gratifying. The biggest step is just making the appt. It says you want closure to all the past emotions and room to feel healthy feelings now. You can do this, you got this.
