How did you do it??
I am seeing a therapist for the first time and want to start discussing my ED. I am SO nervous and constantly feel like canceling the appointment because I have no idea how to open up about it in person. How did you tell yours? (To those who have)

Just remember they're there to help you and not judge you. The last thing they'll do is judge because they are professionals in helping people like you. You're not the first or last that showed up to them asking for help :)
If you struggle speaking though maybe try to write it down first? Write a list of feelings or topics you want to adress before the appointment, and during the appointment if there's moments you struggle also write. Is a more easy to deal with stuff.
You can also bring maybe a stressball to distract yourself from any anxieties while talking.
Hope I helped!
