This week I will have my first session with a counselor recommended by my doctor. After much discussion we decided (translate that as I finally agreed after month and months and months...) it would be a good idea to address things like my food addiction and my Mom's death.
I've spoken to her a couple of times on the phone - something she likes to do prior to the initial appointment. (Guess it helps with baseline establishment or to put people at ease??)She seems to be a very nice person and very easy to talk with. Still I am apprehensive - dealing with painful issues is something I don't look forward to.
