Realizing I Have To Talk To Somebody

After an intense discussion with my husband I realized it really is best if I talk to a counselor about my money issues. It goes so much deeper than money, and obviously, after 12 years of being together and going through this with me, my husband is not able to help me with this. I need professional help. It's hard to admit but more than that I am tremendously frightened about going. I have been helped with other issues by therapy in the past, but I have also been hurt. I don't trust psychologists, therapists, counselors, what have you. At all. But I recognize I need help with this. So I will do what I have to do.

Step 1: Acknowledge The Fear

At the heart of my money issues is an intense fear. I am not sure where this fear comes from or what, exactly, I am afraid of. But I am naming it. I see you, fear, I know what you are.
