Following on from my thread last night, and the little bit of feedback i got on it. I think i am finally going to see a doctor about my trichotillomania and also the other mental issues i have got going on.

If anyone has any suggestions on how i should approach the subject, then PLEASE tell me. I really don't know how i ask or talk to a doctor about it.

I've just moved to the city (Glasgow, Scotland) so i haven't even registered at a new surgery yet, therefore i'll probably have to wait a couple of weeks before i even get an appointment. Furthermore, i have never gone to a doctor for any mental issue so will they not just think i'm being stupid or lying or whatever? What if they just fob me off? The NHS isn't exactly great at giving people the proper help and treatment.

I'm really worried that i'll go and the doctor will think there's nothing wrong with me. I know that there is and i think that i need help whilst i'm still able to tell when i'm ill.

Anyways... i hope someone has a suggestion.
It's really horrible getting up every day and feeling happy because i am happy, i really am! But underneath it i just feel really anxious and then every now and again something really odd will happen, that makes me feel even more anxious. At the moment i'm very aware that it's my brain doing this because essentially that's what mental illnesses are. But it's getting more powerful and i really feel like these are early symptoms and i can't ignore them anymore because even that doesn't work now.

Sigh.
Now i am going to have breakfast and hope that today nothing strange will happen today. Yesterday it was my cat's eyes that freaked me out, which is really upsetting. (They were changing or morphing into something demonic almost). I can't believe i even said that lol, it sounds so crazy but if i can't be honest on here then there's no point.

I guess i'm really scared, that's what i'm trying to say.
And i feel like a fraud because my friends would be horrified if they knew i was even feeling these things. This isn't me at all. But the more i think about it, the more i realise that i've always had these thoughts and when i was very very young, i had hallucinations. They suddenly went and now they're coming back. Why??
What is wrong with me??
