Hi,
I was just wondering is there anyone else out there who has social anxiety and is getting help for it/has had therapy before, and if so how are you finding it?
I'm asking because I've been to see counsellors and a CBT therapist before and am going to start it again soon. I found that it didn't help that much when I was seeing a therapist, it was only after I had stopped, my depression/anxiety sort of improved on its own through time and I was able to see my therapist actually made a lot of sense. For instance, I always tried to work out why I had SA but wondering this never really gave me an answer but simply made me suffer more. The advice my therapist gave me was just to let go of the past which did relieve a portion of my stress.
Anyway just wanted to know what your experience was like with it and what kind of tips/exercises helped the most with you? If anyone feels like sharing that is
