should do if she's any good, i only see my theraphist when i'm having a good day cause i don't feel like talking to anyone when i'm having a bad one n he gets it.

we all have our ups and downs. If you're there to get help, she has to believe you. You're there to get healthy, right? She's not there to judge you, she's there to guide you, listen to you, and help make your life easier. I see my counselor tomorrow too. :) Hugs!

Depression has its ups and downs so she should understand but i would be very thorough in telling her the details because that is important too. I was always afraid to tell my counselor about the bad times (thinking it would ruin my good mood,but it never did)I felt good just venting to another human being. Therapists are wonderful listeners (hopefully yours will be a good listener too)Because all the answers we need are inside its just a matter of time before we figure them out. One hint some one told me once to get rid of my deepest darkest secret and from then on you will never have anything to hide. one day when youre ready try it. sounds wierd and off track but I felt free when I did this.

One good day doesn't dismiss 10 bad ones. People with cancer may have one good day occasionally.

I saw a therapist today for the first time. I woke up and it felt like a good morning. I thought, well I'm not a basket case today so what's the use. But stuff started to really come out, not the basket case stuff, but I was able to root around and think about events and feelings a little more rationally than I can at really bad moments. It's not a question that they will believe you. They will just try to help.

Any therapist worth their salt will know that first sessions are general intro's and they will not disbelieve you if you are feeling better. Reach out and tell them what you are feeling - you may be feeling better cos you got the appointment with the therapist? Its normal to worry, just be honest if you can
