So tomorrow is gonna be a big day for me. I'm finally going to talk for the first time to my counselor about all the things that are making me go insane right now and i just can't wait. I couldn't sleep these past two nights cause I was thinking about what i am going to say and trying to prepare a speech. I'm feeling so nervous but I'm also excited. Last week i finally came out as a lesbian to one of my closest friends and i've never felt so free with her although she knows there's something I'm still not telling her. I think this is just a really good time for me and i wanted to put it down to words. I hope to keep on improving!
Mentally I was preparing for the first session to be like " tell me all your issues, 1,2,3, Go!" lol. The first session is mainly getting a background. The majority of my first session my counselor asked things like what I was taking school, if I lived at home etc. Then the last few little bit he asked if there was anything specifically bothering me that made me go see him. I can be pretty reserved and opening up is difficult. Counselors should be pretty good at not-judging and asking questions to probe for more details when needed. Hope it goes well!
I saw a counsellor. Who told me the truth I didn't like it. I also would have preffered to see a woman but got stuck with a man.
