Scared to be happy?

I was battling server anxiety for 9/10 months, I’ve had it all my life but those months were by far the hardest, to the point of not being able to leave my house.

I had three sessions of hypnotherapy, and I have now just started my old job again, starting driving again, and going out a lot more and going shops on my own.

I feel like a lot more free and I guess happy? But because I haven’t felt happiness in so long it kind of freaks me out when I feel happy?

I try to stop myself and find reasons not to be happy. And it’s driving me crazy.

Is this normal and what can I do to help myself relax a bit more and just let myself and except that I’m allowed to be happy? X
