I'm going through a very low period, I think I'm depressed. My psychologist asked me to run some tests to rule out problems with my thyroid, hormones etc, so I need to go to a doc. I've no one at the moment, have not been to any in years.
However, I'm ashamed of my recent cuts, particularly in my stomach, which he will want to see if he runs a general exam. I live in a country where these kind of behaviors, like self harm, are not widely accepted. I think he/she might juts look at me and ask me why I'm doing this selfish act, or something...

Ideas? I'm avoiding seeking a doctor because of this, don't have the guts to go there :-( and if I wait until my scars fade, it will take a while and I need to get this fixed asap as my depression is worse and worse :-(
Thank you all.
