Hi everyone.
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, and I'm sorry if the proper place is in another forum.
For about a month ago my SO called my doctor and went with me to see her. Based on what SO and I told her she figured out I am depressed. She told us to try to call psychologists and try to get an appointment with someone. She also set me up for a new appointment with her a week later.
I went alone for the second appointment and she took some blood samples and we talked for awhile. I told her that SO had made phone calls and that I was on a pretty short waiting list for a psychologist with a good reputation.
My doctor mentioned medications and that she might want to refer me to the district psychiatric centre. We made a third appointment two weeks ahead (on forthcoming Tuesday).
Now in the meantime, the psychologist my SO talked to got an opening in her schedule, and I went to see her on Wednesday. We talked for awhile and I told her that my doctor had mentioned medication and the centre, and we discussed use of meds for a while and she told me how it works and that it might be an good idea for me, and that I should ask my doctor about it the next time I went to see her. The physiologist and I made another appointment
When the time was nearly over I told her that I have an appointment with my doctor on forthcoming Tuesday, and she seemed surprised and asked me why we had made another appointment.
I really felt bad and in loss for an answer, and just said I didn't really know, and that we just had made another appointment. She didn't say anything more about it, but now I am so confused and really don't know what to do. I guess I kind of want to cancel the appointment with the doctor and put my head in the sand, and I feel really guilty for seeing my doctor and taking up her time and that I am really needy and bad and that I don't deserve neither of their time. I even don't have a good reason for going there except it feels kind of good that someone listens.
What do you think and what should I do?
