First Counseling Appointment

Had my first counseling appointment yesterday. It was good. There were times when I felt like the counselor was going to say "Time will heal" which is NOT what I am looking for. Thus far, time alone is not healing this wound. It's time to dive in and dig out the infection so that healing can start. He agreed that this was necessary. Felt good to talk about the deepness of my pain. He discussed some things with me that made me stop and think about my prespective. Hope he is willing to take the time with me as I sort this out? Afterwards, I was completely wiped out, went home and crashed for several hours, then slept all night!
