I get really nervous sometimes before sessions too. I've even gone to a bar and had a drink (okay a shot of whiskey) before several of them.
It was very counterproductive and wasteful of me.
When therapy gets hard it is usually because you are entering into some murky, difficult stuff that needs to come out.
Remember to respect yourself and your pain and have some compassion for yourself.
It took me the longest time to realize that it is okay to feel like crap. I just had to relax into it.
