Started therapy and honestly it's weird

Been seeing a therapist for 3 weeks now after my wife basically dragged me to find someone. First two sessions I just sat there not talking much, very defensive. But last Wednesday something clicked and I actually cried talking about how much pressure I feel to be the 'provider' and 'fixer' of everything in the house. My therapist pointed out I don't let anyone help me and I just... yeah. It hit different. Not sure if it's working yet but at least I'm showing up. Anyone else find the first month awkward as hell?
