Will this ever end?

[Susan16]

My damned anxiety is getting the better of me. I'm trying so hard to beat it, I'm trying to keep myself busy all the time but as soon as I stop whatever it is I'm doing, it's all doom and gloom again and I start crying. I'm seeing my therapist tomorrow - this will be the second time, the first was just the "get to know you" session. I'm hoping she will be able to help me. But there's this doubt in my mind that she won't and I'll just be a crying wreck the whole of my pitiful life. Please, any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated.

For sure you will be okay Susan. Just take this in your stride. When I have flashbacks which then throw me into a panic attack I actually swear at it. That makes me laugh because I'm treating it as a separate entity. Shouting at it brings me back to reality as well.

Give your therapist time to get to know you and you, her. No one can open up in the first couple of sessions. Things take time and you will recover. Next time you see her ask her for some coping techniques.

As @Karla MOYA mentioned, it might not end but you will learn to coup with it and learn strategies to help you lead your thought into a more positive may.
What kind of therapy have you started, if I may ask?
CBT (cognetive behaviour therapy) helps to kind of reprogram the way you think about situations.
It helped me a lot.
Another question, you seems to be, from what I have read, that you also have depression?
Do you receive any treatment for this?
Sometimes depression can lead to anxiety, but also anxiety can lead to depression.
I think both need to e addressed in any form of treatment.
