Just had a psych eval today and got newly diagnosed with C-PTSD and substance abuse issues on top of my pre-existing GAD and MDD diagnoses. While I'm happy about being offered weekly psychotherapy and hope I can get my work schedule approved to accommodate, I feel ...weird about it. I am a bit thrown off because I thought they were going to turn me away like the last hospital since I am pretty much in remission status thanks to meds and previous therapy. I guess a part of me doesn't really want to return to therapy because I don't want to delve into childhood issues that have not been causing any problems lately and feel sicker than I actually am. I don't want to explore the dark place inside... But at the same time I am grateful for having this opportunity and resource that so many people don't have thanks to a referral from my ex-therapist... Just a lot on my mind and to process when I should be using this day off of work to study....
