No fear? speaking in therapy is difficult, looking for encouragement.

I think I about to be very brave & vulnerable in therapy today. I almost emailed what i wanted to say, but decided its something that I really need to speak about with her. For anyone who has read my previous posts, speaking can be very very difficult for me in therapy. I will take any encouragement I can get. :)
I already have knots in my stomach.

Go for it! I think you are really making a right decision!
You should be proud of yourself! I support you to make that step.

I did it many times and although it was rather painful as expected, I am still thankful I was brave enough to do it. It can only help you in your further work with your therapist.

Funny fact, I am just preparing to go to my session, it's in an hour, so we will be basically dealing with similar things at the same time. So you are not alone!

I meant to tag @expectingbetter ! Sorry! Lol! See, I’m already flustered!

 

[expectingbetter]

Lol, that's common for us before the session :roflmao::whistling:
Thank you, good luck to both of us!
Just tell yourself that you can do it, and you will :tup::hug:

I just had one of those sessions, I did email what I wanted to say and we talked about it but then I got there and spoke more in depth, we had a lot of connection yesterday, was one of my best sessions but was one of the most scary ever, good luck

I did it! I managed to squeak it out! I did end up emailing what I wrote initially because it seemed like it made more sense than the fragments that I managed to get out of my mouth. She understood what I meant though.

Congratulations! I am really glad that you did it! I know how hard it is and what it means! :D
I am glad you have a therapist you have enough trust in. That's most important.

Today was a day for good sessions ;), mine also went good! :tup:
