Thank you for posting. I can hear the fear in your words. I think you are doing the right thing in talking with your counselor. And Rapunzel asaid something that is so important. Just tell your counselor like you told us. I know there have been many times I have written something here and then copied ut and took it in with me because sometimes it is easier to let them read then to try to remember what it is I need to say. Especially when I feel okay about it one minute and am not sure how I might be the next. This has happened many times as trying to remember specifics at times is hrd to do when there is so much I need to remember to say.
I think it is something to talk about with your counselor as far as the bi-polar goes. It can run in families and I think if you tell them about that it will help with what they look for. I really hope you will reach out and open up to your counselor. You are worth getting help and being heard. Know we are thinking about you and we will look forward to hearing how your appointment went. Take care. Sending gentle hugs and loving thoughts.
