HOW THE HELL DO YOU PEOPLE WORK UP THE COURAGE TO TALK TO A THERAPIST.
I've been looking online for therapists and I just can't bring myself to actually contact them. I just know for sure that if I ever actually had to talk to someone face to face about how I feel I would just break down and cry the entire time. How did you find your therapist? What was your first session like? How do you get over the fear of confiding in another person?
FUCKING SAME.

i have my first appointment next tuesday, took me ~9 months to finally call one of them after getting a list full of names from an endocrinologist in august
i was feeling so good after calling half of the therapists and getting an appointment but now i'm afraid of the thing and it being so soon + me fucking up

One of the reasons to talk to a therapist is you can tell them whatever you want without fear of being judged. If you cry the whole time, that means you have pent up pain you need to release to someone.

im already self medding though. but I get really suicidal sometimes and im not sure that will go away without talking to someone about it.
