Hi Folks,

Lately I have been going through a bit of a "crisis" some might say (re: self-injury). The progress my T and I have been making has come to a bit of a halt, and I believe that both her and my family GP don't really know what to do to help me. So, a couple weeks ago my GP made a referral for me to a pdoc in the hopes that she might be able to provide a different perspective, and adjust my medication if necessary.

Normally this pdoc has a waitlist of a couple months, but on Friday I got a call saying that they were able to squeeze me in on a cancellation - for tomorrow morning! I am both hugely relieved and completely terrified. I've been doing a lot of research on this pdoc, and she seems VERY lovely, and has all of these self-help things on her website. I think it will be a good fit, but I'm wondering what to expect out of my first appt with her.

I realize that a lot of it might be the typical "information gathering" that we have all likely experienced with our current or past T's, but I'm wondering if anyone has had any different experiences with pdocs? Do they typically ask you different kinds of questions? Our appt is for 1.5 hours which feels like a long time... but maybe not?

If anyone has any thoughts that would be wonderful!!!

Thanks,
Jacq
