I asked my therapist to sign me up with a poly therapist and she basically said I didn't need one because everybody in my relationships knew. But I do. Coming out isn't the end, it's the beginning.
I told her I had a lot of "how" questions. I had to explain that this isn't a choice for me. And I told her about the time my bf asked me when I chose to be poly and I couldn't answer, because I didn't choose this.
Yesterday I went to the office. and asked the receptionist to transfer me. It was hard for me. I stressed all weekend about it. Going in there and saying words like polyamorous in front of strangers was horrifying.
The receptionist gave me a number to call. When I tried it rang forever and then hung up. So I went back. By the end of the day I had an appointment to meet with a therapist with experience in people with polyamory.
I spent so much emotional energy on this. I'm recharging today.
