Honey...no, you won't be lying down liek you see in the movies. You will actually be sitting in a chair, facing the pdoc...or on a couch, like I do...and it will be pretty relaxed...the pdoc will ask you a bunch of questions...and believe me, they are prepared for you to "lose it". They will ask a bunch of questions, like what you feel, what you're going through...what your moods are like...etc.

My first appt was like that...I got asked lots of questions...but it was such a RELIEF!

Don't be scared, okay?

I'll be right there with you, holding your hand...be strong...tell them the truth about everything...don't hold ANYTHING back...you'll be really glad to get it off your chest and get some help.

Many hugs, and MUCH STRENGTH!

You can do this...I'm beside you.

Love and Hugs,
