Miss Laura - hang in there. You are seeing a specialist, so theoretically someone who will be able to help you even more than your GP. I was also anxious the first time I met a psychiatrist, but but really was for the better. They bascially need an understanding of your life so far, what you've been through, what could have caused stress. Thereafter we discussed moods and feelings, if possible highlighted any trends I may have spotted. Or specific stressors. Then we look at my current meds and decide where to make changes if necessary.
It will be fine - all the best xx
