Anybody here with counselling experience? I am starting counselling on Thursday for social anxiety. What should I expect? Any stories?
As long as you're actively willing to make a change it will really help, most the people here will deny it but that's bc they lack any sense of self awareness

YI'm sick of my mind going blank when a stranger asks me for the time so yeah, I'll make a change.
Are you saying that from experience?
Shoutouts to DHM.IS i guess
You'll work it out. Just smoke weed or something, pal

The thing is now when I smoke weed there are times when I'm too anxious to do anything
I have been through anxiety disorders services and I am also now a registered psychologist. Look up cognitive behavioural therapy, specifically detached mindfulness and attention training, it is more than likely what you will go through early on. Also try be open, you get the best results when you at least somewhat have faith in the treatment.

Enjoy your lowered perception of your surroundings.
