So I went to therapy for the first time. It was a short term arrangement at my university. My counselor was a really nice person and seemed to be genuinly trying to help me. I told told him all kinds of things because I wanted to be open from the start to get the maximum out of it. But all the stuff I said was really disjointed because I was nervous from my social anxiety. I told him so many things that I never have told anyone in my whole life. I even mentioned that I felt like was getting too attatched to him because I didn't have much of a father figure in my life. He seemed to undertsand and told me that I need to develop independance by applying the things he taught me. He never showed any signs of being weirded out by me or angry at me. Now, after all the sessions, I am embarassed beyond my mind. I can't stop thinking about all the things I told this person. I know he's a counselor, but I just told another living breathing human all sorts of embarassing things. Everyday I think about what he could have thought of me. I get terrfied that I will run into him sometime. This whole thing seemed to have backfired because of my stupid social anxiety. I know he's a therapist and must have seen and heard everything by now. Whatever I told him must have not even been that big of a deal. But I am still soooooooooo embarassed! Can anyone relate?
