So I went to my gp app. I am now on the MH plan. She prescribed an anti depressant. I havent filled the script yet. I also have an app with a psychologist in 17 days. Am I counting? you bet.. I am terrified.
I am so anxious. Hiding as best I can. How do i not " see" any triggers until then.. I seem to be surrounded by them.. eveywhere I look. I cant seem to turn my head off .. the thoughts run in circles 😞
