Be honest and be open. Share the things you’ve had pent up and don’t hold back. If you feel like the first session didn’t do much for you, go back and do a few more anyways. If you have a few more sessions and you don’t jive with the therapist, start the process to find someone else. People are complex, emotions can be tough, but the human connection and proven methodologies of treatment can help you.

Also, to add further, the road to overcoming our anxieties, depression or other mental illnesses is not linear. Some days will be better than others, some will be devastating. But a proactive approach through therapy, mindfulness, and medication (through a reputable professional if prescribed) can be a god send. Wishing you the best vibes! ❤️

Would love your thoughts :)
