Triggering (SI) - Me.. first steps

[LilyLeaf]

Hi

This is the first thing i've posted on here, only joined today, I actually came on this site two years ago but didn't do anything because i didn't think what i did was as bad... now i know it is!

I took the first step and went to my doctors yesterday, he gave me anti depressents? will these help? any advice appreciated, he's also reffered me to someone......

I was so ashamed sitting at his big desk in front of him, and then wnet home and did it again!!!!!!

I just keep telling myself its not that bad..... i'm in control.........i'm so lost right now.

thanks for reading my first message............ its not a lot .. sorry.xxxxxxx

Welcome to the site :)

Well done for going to the doctors, that was so brave of you hun, you should be really proud of yourself.
They might help, has he referred you to any form of counselling too?

PM if you ever want a chat. x

Glad you took that 'first step' of going to the doctor. The anti depressants could take a while to take effect. Make sure you read up on what the side effects are.

Take Care

That was really great going to your GP..

The antidepressents like others said will help but they might take a while to work..

Have you got a counsellor?

Welcome to the forum :]
I'm so glad you took the first steps to helping yourself.
The antidepressants should help, if they are the right kind for you, and if you take them as prescribed.
I'm always a message away if you need to talk.

welcome to RYL, i hope you find the support you are looking for

well done for going to the doctors! that's a really big and positive step
the anti depressants should help, remember you have to give them a few weeks for some to start working properly, if you find any problems with them, please go back and see you GP about it

you can get through this, we are all here to help you

PM anytime
