Had my first therapy appointment! She was very calm and soft spoken but not uncomfortably so. We covered so much!! I cried when she asked me what a good memory of my dad was. I said it was when he called me "Mooser". Usually he'd call me my nickname Moose my whole life because I was premature and only 3 lbs 4 oz Lots of comfy furniture too!
I told her I'd like to work on my anxiety. She said my examples sounded like severe anxiety. __________________ Ingrezza 80 mg Propranolol 40 mg Benztropine 1 mg Vraylar 1.5 mg, Gabapentin 300 Mania Sept/Oct 2024 Mania (July/August 2024) Mania (December 2023) Mixed episode/Hypomania (September 2023) Depression, Anxiety and Intrusive thoughts (September 2021) Depression & Psychosis (July/August 2021) Mania (April/May 2019) |

That is great news! I haven't tried therapy again for a good 10 yr. or longer. I never clicked with a therapist, it all felt so artificial I gave up. I'm glad you had a good first session and make good progress in your therapy.

It is wonderful that you let down your guard and became vulnerable with her.Sounds like a fantastic session!
