I had my first visit with a T yesterday. It was definately and information gathering session but I didn't feel that I was being interrogated or anything. Most of the questions asked were about things that I was prepared to talk about anyway. It lasted about an hour. I cried almost the entire time. It was quite a release and it felt very good to get some weight off my chest. We established a good background and a foundation to build my sessions on for sure. My T is not a pdoc, just a counselor, but she is in the same office as the pdoc that I see for medications. It's pretty convenient. I am very encouraged and feel like this will really help me through some difficult issues. I can't wait for my next session already. Like the others, I encourage you to open up completely. I did not feel judged or otherwise uncomfortable. I could tell that her goal was to help me. All in all a good experience. I wish you good luck in your first session!
