tried therapy for the anxiety, here is where I am

Started seeing someone for anxiety about three months ago, mostly because my doctor suggested it and I had run out of reasons to say no. The first four sessions I spent a lot of time explaining my life, which felt like homework I had not studied for. By session six something shifted, not dramatically, more like a small recalibration. I started noticing the anxious spiral earlier, which does not stop it but gives me a few extra seconds. My brain fog is not related, as far as I can tell, but I am less convinced every foggy moment is a catastrophe now. I still have the anxiety. I am just slightly less surprised by it, which turns out to matter more than I expected.
