I had 2 therapy sessions and feel worse.

Rant - Advice wanted :snoo_scream:

Hi. I just started therapy a couple weeks ago and had 2 sessions. My therapist is very down to earth and easy to talk to.

But i feel like i am reopening wounds i may have moved past. It feels good to express myself for once on certain topics. But now i am at home alone in my own mind replaying my old traumas. I thought i moved on from the past but im hurting bad today.

I felt depressed and had problems before the sessions. But now im thinking of trauma growing up. I am hoping this is part of the process. It reminds me of AA meetings where people come and keep talking about the past and same stories. Ok we talked about it, now what? Maybe its too early to tell. Thanks for reading
