It's very soon, Friday. I'm just really scared. I don't know what will happen.
Also I've gained a bit of weight, but it's hard to tell as my period is due, what is solid base weight and what is the PMS *thing*. It's the same as last month, essentially, so really there's actually very little change. I'm worried she won't listen when I tell her that I always gain x weight the week before my period, then lose it again once my period is through. But she specialises in women's health, so one would hope she'd have that sussed. My therapist has also written to my GP. So I have so much back up. I just have to go in there on my own and face her and hopefully come out with some kind of referral actioned, mostly for medical ED and long term food/diet [as in what one eats, not a diet diet!] management/monitoring.
I need to practice - here and in therapy - before then what to say to my GP and how to say it assertively and honestly. Does anyone have any advice? I also need to try and avert from expressing any resentment and anger for her not really listening or seeing how I really am at my last appointment.
I'm feeling really vulnerable at the moment, and the weather isn't helping as I don't tolerate heat well at all, physically or emotionally.
