Im back from seeing the therapist... he seems pretty good, he just showed me a few relaxation techniques. I ended up staying in his office 30 minutes longer than my appointment was scheduled for. Upon looking at me, as all people and doctors alike do, he thought itit would be a simple case but by the end he was saying its going to be pretty tough to crack this but he's up for the challenge so we'll see. He believes the anxiety is basically a symptom for the things I've been trying to ignore and brush off, he's probably right. I realized in his office that the same day i had the second seizure was the same day someone who hurt me in the past moved back to my hometown. I try to forget that abuse so i never thought much of it until sitting in his office. I guess some things we have to face, even if life seems easier to ignore it. He can see the tornado in my mind and is worried about me just breaking so he said if i need it, he will find a way to fit me in any day of the week even last minute. Best part is, each appointment is only $2 because of my income. Things look hopeful so far, i just hope i can get a grip on the anxiety. Ive got the earliest appointment for meds that they had available 2 weeks from now. Its typically a month or two wait. Until then, i just have to keep putting one foot in front of the other, keep moving forward
