Nhs talking therapies

[BeHazelFox]

Hi,
I've got my first counselling session tomorrow. I've had CBT but was referred to counselling. I'm a closed book mostly lots of childhood trauma that's been buried I'm an anxious wreck about my telephone appointment tomorrow. I have really good days, then days where I could jump off a ledge. I don't know how I will wake up feeling. I work full time keep a lid on things mostly but it's draining and no way to live.
Anyhow I reached out and got some help god knows what they will as me or how they can help.

*for me

Well done, OP. Hope your call goes OK - don't worry, they are VERY used to people being nervous and not knowing what to say! You did a good thing for yourself when you reached out.

Thank you. 😊

Well done you for reaching out!! No wonder your nervous, nothing worse than speaking to someone new. If you read my post, something I need to do, but haven't got to where u are yet! Let me know how it goes xx

Just wanted to give a quick update. My appointment went well, it was difficult sharing some things, it was an assessment not therapy. I've got another appointment next week.

Happy to hear it went well! Hang in there
