Well, my appointment started half an hour late...so that was really stressful, because I had to sit in the waiting room for an additional half an hour. I was super jumpy and anxious by the time I was called back.
The p-doc was really nice, calm, understanding, helpful. I agreed to take a prescription home and think about getting it filled. Then, on the way home, I decided to just stop and fill it. Next step is to actually take the meds.
I called T right after my appointment and talked to her for a bit, then sat in the parking lot for a while, then hit rush hour traffic on the way home, so I stopped and had dinner to let the traffic thin out a little.
The p-doc asked me about one topic that I find difficult to talk about, and I shut down, and fought off tears...he told me that it was okay, we didn't have to talk about it right then. I managed to collect myself and we moved on. I was very anxious the entire time, all my defenses were up, and it was hard to stay present, but I managed. I go back in 3 weeks (assuming I start the meds) for a check in.
