Positive experience

[Ragdoll]

Well with a little coercion I had to bite the bullet today and see my new doctor (who was recommended by my partner's friend, a psych nurse).

He turned out to be lovely - not at all focused on si, more wanting to fix the underlying problem itself, which is exactly how I see it!

I'm back on meds at a higher dose so hopefully things will improve once they get floating round my system in the next few weeks

Still worried about surgery next week, but feeling so much more positive after finally finding a doctor who knows his stuff and doesn't make me feel like a failure!

So for those of you who have crap doctors (like I used to), there is hope!

I am really glad that you had a positive experience with this doctor. I hope things start improving for you and good luck with your surgery
Take care xxx

Yes i totally Agree!!!!!

Your doc is right too!! No one should try to "fix" self harm without getting to the cause also!!!

Well done you!

Love and a spoon with goose moose on it

hehehe yeah I loved the corset too

He's easily the best doctor I've ever seen for depression, didn't make me feel stupid for coming off meds, or tell me I need to try harder or anything helpful *ahem* like that

I am definitely keeping this one!
