Update On My Appointment
 

So, I am just following up to the post I made about a week ago you can find it here: http://recoveryourlife.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69413. Before anything, thanks to everyone who replied, encouraging me and also people in chat who spoke with me. To make a long story short I DID make it to my appointment today. I was terribly nervous and almost shaking, I could hear my heart pounding and my head was throbbing, it was also really awkward but at the same time I was actually able to be quite honest even though I was so shy. So, they referred me to a psychiatrist, unfortunately I have to wait 3 weeks (its on Nov. 19) but at the same time that gives me time to get ready for it. I hope it works out, as I haven't had the chance to talk to someone in a long time, even though I have a psych right now and have for years, i haven't been very truthful.

So, keep your fingers crossed for me that I don't cancel this next appointment or get too nervous and just skip it and that everything just goes smoothly. If you made it this far, thanks for reading this post. I feel successful tonight :jumpin:

Well done, you did it.

Well done honey! I'm really proud of you! I know how worried you were! You should be really proud of yourself!!!!

Good for you. I hope the referral really helps shift things for you.

Fantastic! You wwent to this appointment, things are looking better, and when you go to the next appointment it will help you more. Well done for being honest. I hope it works out for you! You deserve it! :) x

Yeah, thanks, that's the plan. I hope its easier this next time but I have my doubts about that. Thanks so much, I will definitely give you guys an update when I actually go and see the psych for the first time.

if you're having trouble going then maybe get a friend to kick your ass into gear about it? That's usually pretty helpful!

well done! I knew you could do it =)
you should be really proud of yourself
