Im right up to date now with season 13 @outlander and @CheerBear 💕 So I need something else to start watching! What else do you like to watch? I am shamelessly into with keeping up with the kardashians. We also watch Riverdale every Friday on Netflix. And I recently finished Gossip Girl for the second time, and Dexter. How are you today @outlander

[Former-Member]

Today's the day and I'm really scared

[Mazarita]

Hi @Former-Member, just remember that it's natural to be scared on the first appointment. I get nervous with a new psychiatrist, even though I've seen them before. Maybe just let yourself feel the fear passing through you, without being scared of being scared, if that makes any sense. It will most likely get easier for you over time. If it works well with you and your psychiatrist, there will be so much that is valuable you might even start to look forward to going. I look forward to seeing my psychiatrist now, even though I was similarly nervous when I first met him. I find his presence in my life reassuring and very helpful. Sending very best wishes it goes the same or better for you! 

[Former-Member]

Thank you @Mazarita I'm just so nervous because I've decided to tell him about these thoughts I've been having and I can't stop them and I've never ever told anyone before because it's so embarrassing. But I know if he's unfriendly I won't tell him or if I don't get the right feel I will chicken out even though I know I need to say something. Does that make sense? I know I'm scared of being scared, like you said, I kind of feel like I'm preparing myself for the worst so it's not as disappointing if this doesn't go well. 15 minutes to go...
