I took the first step... And wow... It's terrifying. I'm glad my personal tutor is easy to talk to because if she wasn't I would have had a panic attack. She let me choose whether I wanted to involve my older brother (who I live with) or not. I chose not to involve him because of past experiences. She then told me to make an appointment with a female doctor because I'd most likely find it easier to talk to her than to my GP. So, on my way home I made an appointment. I'll be seeing her this Friday at 11:30am and I can't express how scared I am. I'm not afraid of needles, or blood and I have a stupidly high pain tolerance. Yet the thought of going there terrifies me. Wish me luck everyone. I'll need it.
