I've never been to a therpaist myself, but my best friend says that <i>everyone</i> can benefit from talking to a trained professional. Hugs to you! Good for you!

That naked on stage feeling comes with the beginning. After a few sessions you'll know if this therapist is right for you because that feeling goes away. If not, that's a sign (for me) to find someone new. Meds have been a lifesaver for me too. If you do go that route, I take Zoloft for anxiety/depression, & I highly recommend it. I've been through too many to name, & it's the only one that didn't knock me over with side effects. Good luck to you! Therapy has been a lifesaver for me for years.

CBT, psychoanalytic, eclectic? Is whoever you're seeing a licensed psychologist? And you're a champ for going -- it's a brave and sometimes difficult thing to do, even though it shouldn't be. There are a lot of weird beliefs about going to therapy even though a good psychologist can teach anyone skills that would be beneficial (even if they don't meet criteria for a disorder).

Good on ya for knowing you need a bit of help and finding it. I'll send you a bit of positivity whenever I can. :-D Up here we have no co-pay for anything like therapy etc. Its covered under our public healthcare plans (but we do have private therapists who will charge as well).

Being encumbered by something like this sucks, and you've taken the first step to being even funnier - without the mean. But hey - take heart - as I said the other night, you're already doing better than some people I know, seeing as you're also able to be funny and not come off like you loathe everyone and everything.
