A bit nervous.....
A friend called me today to tell me there is a clinic here that will see low income people and made me an appt for today. I'm very nervous about it. Not sure what the dr will say. I don't need to hear, well you just need to eat. I'm also scared that that she may say I realy screwed up my body.

Getting help is nerve racking. It's ok to be nervous. The fact that you're going is theeee most important step in getting help, into recovery. Open your mind to what the doctor says. Many of us do not want to hear what we already know because the truth hurts, sucks and makes us feel uncomfortable. The truth is if you want to get out of that vicious cycle that we've all fallen prey to then you have to get uncomfotable and find the right help. As for your body, many of us have had that same fear. Some of us were right, most of us were wrong.
Go, listen, then post.
Keep us updated on how the appointment goes. I hope and pray God will take away your fears and you'll get through the appointment well. Hang in there! I know I need to see a doctor too, but waiting until we can afford it. Please let us know how it goes? Take care of yourself! I'm so proud of you for getting the help you need :) We'll all get through this, one step at a time, together :) *HUGS*
What a sweet dr she was. She ordered a bunch of blood work. I have another appt next wk for results and to get antidepressants.
I have several different health issues. So I am in a doctor's office several times a year. Amazingly enough, I have one doctor that had become a friend. She is the one that is the most honest. She has seen me cry laugh and go off but she never waivers. That is what I love the most. I trust her. I may not like her opinion or what she wants but I know she is honest. Find a doctor you can trust. She is my cardiologist and the one I called when I knew I needed help. She has done and supported me through this. Doctors can be your friend. Relax and be honest. I am getting ready to face a new set of doctors soon. It will take me a while to really be honest. They will be in recovery from this crap. I know what they are after and facing this will be suck. I am scared!! But I know I have someone to lean on here and in the office.
