So I recently did some cognitive behavioural therapy and I kinda hated it...

It was just really overwhelming having to talk to a person I don't know over the phone like that and I couldn't get over the feeling that I was being tested so I couldn't say the wrong thing or imply that anything was getting worse and I felt anxious all day in the lead up to these calls and for fifteen minutes before each I was so anxious I couldn't do anything besides watch the time. When we finished she talked about setting me up with some longer more intensive sessions specifically for social anxiety and logically I know I need something for my social anxiety but I just couldn't stand the thought of actually going through with that so I turned them down.

I don't really know what else to do or how to bring up trying an alternative solution with my doctor (funnily enough partly because I'm too anxious to...) but I just  feel too anxious to actually engage in the therapy how I think I need to. I was wondering if anyone had any advice (I'm in the UK if that makes any difference)?
