CBT anxiety

mouse2

Hi all. I have my first session of CBT tomorrow and I'm nervous. I dont like seeing new doctors etc and get so anxious. 

I dont really know what to expect. They've carried out over the phone assessments but I've not seen anyone yet. And why is it when they ask you over the phone questions I dont answer properly! I dont know why. For example how do you get on with your husband I reply great. But then as the conversation replays days later in my head I think ohhhh maybe they didnt mean right now maybe they mean overall.....weve split up 3 times and had lots of counselling but I've not told them this. 

My head hurts

    Thank you for the reply. It was a disaster. The road was closed that I usually take. I had to do a u turn on dual carriageway wit everyone else.arrived late. I was in tears when I arrived. He asked me questions I needed time to wind down

     I kept asking to repeat the question or what do u mean.

    Ended that cbt may not be for me but i need to go back ne t week for more questions

  • I hate meeting new people in general and never go to the doctors.

    I would rather have 2 friends for life because I can’t make new friends it’s impossible.

    I always ask for perspective if I’m asked a question or told to do something. 

    I’ll be asked to put a little bit of water in a glass but I’ll say what’s a little and I’ll need an almost exact measurement.
