Is your therapist back from vacation? I remember that she was going to be away for a long time.
Just try to say whatever comes to your mind. As adults we do tend to edit before speaking (at least we should most of the time). But in therapy, it works best if we share our feelings as they come up. Usually with our t's help, it will take us somewhere that needs attention.
I find it's always hard to get started. So I'll just say that and whatever pops into my head afterwards - even if it's random like "Oh I forgot to pack my son's lunch today ..."
Hang in there. It is hard. It's not easy for anyone.
