Scared about appointment with psychiatrist next week. Wish I could elaborate more but can't open up about anything. Story of my life.

I am sorry that you are scared. know that you are not the only one who gets scared for a variety of reasons. I get scared every time I have to go to pdoc and I have no reason to be. I always have t call her to give her the heads up on how things are going so that I don't have to talk to her. and she is a very nice pdoc too so I don't know what I am so afraid of. I hope your appt goes well. take care.

Don't be scared. It's okay to be scared, but your psychiatrist is not there to judge you, he/she is there to HELP you. Open up and you'll see that the sky, heck the COSMOS is the limit.

lol! it's going to feel weird, the first few moments showing up are the worst ( i wanted to run out the door before my T knew i was there).

by the end of the session it won't be so bad.

...and you can do what has been suggested in several forums regarding opening up to either p-doc or T (and I wish I'd known of cause I would have, my first time) ...write down things you are afraid to say out loud. Your pdoc will understand, and it will give them a ramp to work with.

sigh. I could have used the help.
