Well, yesterday went well. She is going to break everything into two parts. My T will work with me with the depression and severe anxiety and she has a partner who will work with me on Trauma Therapy. She explained that this approach will give each of them an opportunity to address each issue fully. I guess from my point of view it will help because I will know when I go in who i am going to be seeing and that will give me time to prepare for what will be discussed. My T explained that there are so many things that have bled into everyday life that she wants to be sure that those issues are tended to while the trauma is also being dealt with. I think it should work out ok. I hope lol.

She also gave the okay for me to work with my family doctor for any type of anti depressants to ensure that nothing counteracts with any meds I am already taking.

I feel safe with her. She is very easy to talk to and is a very positive person. I explained to her about this group and how it was very helpful getting me through the two week wait and how many of the topics you all have written helped bring to light things that are associated with PTSD.

All in all I feel good about the whole plan and am eager to get it started. And as ALWAYS THANK YOU ALL for being here !

Be Safe and Be Well ~~ Jenn
