So you went outside your comfort zone, and had a stress reaction to it. Don't take that as proof you'll "never get better". It's normal to feel stressed when you act outside your comfort zone. It sounds like it was a pretty big step for you, so naturally you'd react. Persist and over time it will get easier and your comfort zone will get larger.
Maybe you need to take a smaller step next time, or else prepare yourself for some backlash from that part of you that's afraid of change. Or maybe you'll be fine with this after your T can help you process it.
I'm glad to hear that you're taking steps like this. It seems part of you is ready to change.
