Nervous

[Laniben]

Got an appointment at 3pm with counsellor/therapist, just order a cab to take me. I’m really nervous about it and I feel quite shaky at the moment about going as I’ve not been to one before. Anyone else felt the same? 😐

I felt fear, nervousness, nausea .

It’s normal you have to go with it I’m afraid.

Good luck

The weird thing is many years back now i wanted to be a counsellor, I did a short course for Cruise Bereavement, I didnt continue because it was so expensive and I didn’t have that sort of money ... now I’m going to one Ironic isn’t it

Hi Sam

I was nervous that I did not manage to pluck up enough courage until about 4 months after starting antidepressants. I could even consider it at your stage. How many weeks ago now did you start?

Very best of luck.

Let us know how it goes.

I had a t shirt in the wardrobe I nearly put on but thought mmmm maybe not as it said ‘living on the edge’ had it for a long while and had forgotten about it, it didn’t have any specific meaning at the time though, I did see a funny side

Haha! That is quite amusing Sam.

I was nervous too, but the guy I saw was very understanding, compassionate and put me at ease.

You'll be fine, it's great you're able to make the effort, and who knows it might make all the difference to you.

Go girl! 😊❤️xx
