I have to do mine on April 20th. I could not push it out any farther. I am not happy about it doing it. I can barely even talk to my Pdoc in person because he makes me so nervous and he knows that since my T told him. This video chat is going to be so awkward. I just hope he’s doing it in his office.

Maybe you'll be less nervous with it not being in person? Hope it goes well!

I had one yesterday with a pdoc from a completely different state than I live in and I've never met her before. The company has locations in 2 states and somehow I got put on this lady's schedule during this pandemic thing. I absolutely hated it and is making me consider changing practices now.

My Pdoc is doing phone not video but it went much better than the phone or video sessions with T. But... I adore my Pdoc and she is always very personable.

My psychiatrist does do video sessions but I prefer phone sessions. We talk once a week.

I did a video session with my Pdoc yesterday. It went well. I had no problems and for me it was no big deal.

No, not yet. I need to email him at some point to ask how this will all work out.

Even my family doctor is doing video appointments. Had one over a medical issue that I needed meds for just last weeks. Pretty much the norm when and where direct contact can be avoided right now.
