Good luck!

I can understand being nervous about going to the doctor and/or therapist. Any time I saw a new therapist or was prescribed a new drug, I was really anxious. I had an appointment last week with a new psychiatrist and was nervous, not sure why. I know that the drug companies have to cover their behinds, but sometimes, for me, the fearmongering caused by the lists of potential side effects makes me reluctant to take different meds.

Like other people said, write everything down that you feel is out of the ordinary, and even how often the symptoms occur, even physical symptoms. Write down anything that you think might be relevant. The more info you have for the doc, the more they have to go on in order to give you an accurate diagnosis.
Thanks for this!
