I don't want to go.

I don't want to go to T tomorrow. I know she will just ask if I'm on meds yet. And I'll say no. I know I'm just a disappointment to her. I'm just nervous to go to the doctor...And we are doing this 4 question thing. I don't know what it is. And I'm nervous for that to. I don't want to go, but I know my friend will make me...

Be brave! You can do it! I know it can be scary at first but hang in there! Therapy has worked wonnders for me and I don't know where I would be without it. Best of luck!

Sometimes T's do get upset and come across as disappointed or even say they are disappointed with us. Other times, we worry that they will be but they really aren't at all thinking that. But, the reality is if it was so easy to do things and not be nervous about stuff like doctors and getting medication then you probably wouldnt be seeing them in the first place (I think sometimes some of them forget that!). Hopefully rather than focusing on that your T will instead help you to feel more comfortable about going to the dr and work with you on the nervousness. I hope it goes well

You don't have to take medication if you really are against it. Don't let anyone push you into something you don't want to do.

I am sure your t is not angry or disappointed, and if she is...find a new t.

I believe if a therapist is disappointed in a client it is their own problem, not the client's.

Amen. Expressing disappointment *in* a client is about as counter-therapeutic as it can get

My friend is forcing me to go.

How are they doing that?

She'll drive me there herself.

Is it a good thing though; like a nudge you need to get you there or does it feel more like being bullied?

It's bad because I get really nervous and when I'm there I'm nervous and I'm nervous until I take a nap so I don't know I guess I really don't like being nervous
