Had my first counselling session today. Somehow came out of it worse than I started. All his responses were very "memorized" as if he already knew what he was going to say, despite not knowing the situation. We then got on the topic of bullying and how it's happened to me since elementary school, and then that somehow brought up relationships, and well we know how that one goes. Except he didn't really "approve" of my lifestyle choices and then basically inferred I need to find someone closer to home. Because apparently I can't find "real love" outside of my province, let alone country.
I just don't know what else to say about this whole thing. I went in there majorly depressed and almost had a panic attack at the thought of going there (I even thought about cancelling again) and then came out puffy faced and red eyed and feeling worse about myself than I started. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure counselling shouldn't be happening that way.
