On Monday.
12 years ago
I go to my first appointment at the community mental health centre on Monday morning. This is the preliminary assessment. I'm pretty nervous already.
It's not so much the going or the inability to find the right words that has my anxieties acting up, it's the "what if?" scenario that even the professionals are unable to help me and cannot give me the answers I have been searching for for so long now. I know not what else I can do if that comes to be.
Oh!
And on Tuesday morning, I'll be taking my little kitty- Who is now named Asche- back to the vets for her neebles and hopefully arrange her spay day.
I'll also ask for her claws to be clipped so she doesn't keep getting stuck to the carpet and her toys all the time! ;v;

Aww, Asche is so cute!
Whatever the results are (and you should be proud of yourself for reaching out as much as you have! Asking for help takes a lot of guts even when you aren't already dealing with social anxiety-it's a step in the right direction), there are a lot of ways you can minimize those kinds of issues. Hopefully this will get you moving in the right direction.
You seem like a decent person. You've made some huge steps. Do your best to keep that in mind any time you're feeling a little (or a lot) down on yourself and remember to try your best to take things one moment at a time.
I wish you the best, Fulpelt.
What's important to remember is that they won't be able to just "fix" you like a medical doctor, it's more like being given tools, like medication and therapy, to cope with anxiety and depression. Getting better will take time and a lot of work, but don't be discouraged; I know you can do it!
Best of wishes! You deserve it!
