The appointment went well, I was right in that it was somewhat of an “intake” appointment so that they could find the best way they could help me. I think I was able to get across the problems I had been having and how I had been feeling once I was able to start talking more, at first I was so anxious I barely said anything and really just wanted to run. Once I really got going I think I did pretty good, only cried a couple of times, thankfully I had my own Kleenexes because for some stupid reason there were none in the office, of course when I wasn’t actually using the Kleenex I was playing with it to the point that I was starting to get distracted by all the little pieces all over my lap which actually kinda helped. After talking for about 20 min or so I was told that there was quite the wait list for one on one counseling but the woman who was doing the intake thought that I would benefit from a group therapy type thing that meets every week on wed for about a year and focusses on social interactions and coping skills. I told her that I would give it a try for a week or two before committing to an entire year, I’m not entirely sure how much I would benefit from such a program as the information in the four modules that she talked about sounded fairly simple and like things I already knew. She could have just been explaining it badly though so again I’ll give it a shot, first time being next wed from 1-3pm which is kind of past my “bedtime” as it were, but I think I can change my schedule around before then. All in all I think it was a good appointment, I am a little disappointed that I wasn’t able to get the one on one help I need but I was able to get an appointment with the Psychiatrist my doctor referred me to for early Dec, also on a wed. I am of course super anxious about that but hopefully I will be able to have a good, meaningful discussion with her and be able to leave the appointment satisfied. Since my appointment isn’t for a few weeks I will have time to organize my thought and I hope to be able to properly verbalize how I am feeling emotionally, physically, and mentally.
