Today was the first time going to therapy but it was also the first time going to the doctor's by myself since usually I have company with me .3.

As expected, I was terrible at talking/explaining things at first but sort of manage to talk more. It wasn't actually so bad! The therapist was funny so he wasn't like dead serious so that's good xD

I wrote a multiple choice form and my level of both anxiety and depression are moderate, so it's not severe.

My therapist chatted with me, mentioned a website to me to register and he gave me a few books which he said for me to keep. When I explained what I was doing at college, he was interested to see my art so I showed him a few drawings on my phone and he liked them.

Something that I didn't expect was him saying that I could make two characters (based on optimism and pessimism/depression), "talk" to them in my head and listen to the optimist character, as if I don't want to be the pessimist's friend. I actually felt excited to try this and he's looking forward to seeing them as well x3 I'm making the pessimistic one a serval wearing a hoodie that covers her eyes and as for the optimism I'm still thinking about it (I would've used a quokka but idk xD)

I thought the therapy was helpful and I hope that I'll get better the more I'll take sessions along with taking anti-depressants .u.

And that was an achievement to actually go there myself xD I didn't freak out/get a panic attack, I was nervous but it was minor.



I just thought I'd type an update of how I got on, plus I've been silent on DA and FA recently .A.
