Hi Miss Laura, every time I go to see my psychiatrist I always seem to be at my best so we part with him thinking I'm all fine and good. Unfortunately those other days when I'm not seeing him are not as good. Now even though I may be all grins during our appointment, I make sure to tell him about the bad days since the last appointment, that way he is aware of how many good and/or bads days I've had. I've always found it helpful to have a diagnosis so I know what it is I am fighting. I like the illness to have a name so I can research it and find out ways to cope with it. Maybe if you have subsequent visits you can keep a jounal or track your moods. It is impotant for him to know all about you so he can give you the correct treatment. Good luck tomorrow and just relax. shaggy
