Hi Everyone,
I stumbled upon this website the other day and I am so relieved to read about so many peoples experiences with social anxiety...I can relate 110% on so many of these things! What a relief to know I'm not the only one!!
Anyways..it took me so long (years) to get the courage to call a therapist, but somehow..as akward as I was...I did and I have my first appt on Tuesday. And I AM NERVOUS. SO SO nervous. The anxiety in me wants to cancel it, not show up, run away. But I've come so far that I know I can't turn around now.
Can anyone give me some of their experiences/advice/consolations about this first time?? I have no idea how I am going to get through it! I know I am going to clam up and just a mess!!!
