I finally took the courage to log into my university student account and look at my enrollment status and grades from last semester. I called the university today and schedule an appointment to see a personal and educational counselor. I'm not sure if I have to see a psychiatrist or not but I have to see a counselor first before possibly seeing a psychiatrist. I also called Stanford Hospital today to get information on seeing a doctor for my skin illness. I know it's Stanford but I can't believe it costs $800 just for a consultation visit. I instantly felt discouraged when I found out how much it costs. If a consultation visit is only $800 then imagine how much it would cost if I needed continuous check ups. The person helping me told me about applying for additional financial assistance which I will be trying to do.
It's funny how hard just making simple phone calls are...My appointments with the personal and educational counselors are scheduled for tomorrow already. I'm already feeling nervous and anxious about the sessions. Would it be strange if I print out posts that I've shared on here with the counselor? It would be so much easier for me to do that instead of trying to tell them what's going on on the first visit.
