Psychologist appointment

May 16, 2014

I have coming up on the 27th of this month and I'm a little worried they'll find me unfit. When I was a teenager I attempted to take my life 3 times... nobody knew that except my husband. But I told the nurse in the intake appointment... she asked if I was every hospitalized, I said no, no one knew about it... She started scribbling stuff down and then the same day I got an email from her saying she recommends I do a follow up appointment with the psychologist.

I was like, oh shit, I shouldn't have said that stuff... dammit... but my husband told me that I'm on anti-depressants because I was having "those" thoughts again about 7 years ago... so what's the big deal? I wasn't afraid to get help this time, I didn't keep it to myself. He said it's likely they just want to be sure my head is in the right place and I'm not trying to get surgery for the wrong reasons.

Wish me luck... and some peace... because my stress level is going through the roof right now..

I've never seen a psychologist before. I've always been worried they'd call me a nut job and try to lock me up, if they could only meet the rest of my family they'd realize I'm the more "normal" one of the bunch. :) I know I make light of this, but I use humour to calm myself always, could be my crutch too...

Thanks for reading. :)
