I had my first session with a Relate counsellor today, 3 months after STBXH blindsided me by leaving me for an O.W. after 15 years together.
I feel exhausted, drained and as if I'm coming down with the 'flu now, but also proud of myself for taking this step to try to make sense of all that's happened. I hope it's going to help me move forward. I have booked my next appointment for a fortnight from today, as even if I could afford it every week, it's too draining.
I am glad I waited until now, as I wasn't emotionally strong enough to start before.
Thank you for reading.
