Finally

After months and months of debating if I really needed to go see a psychiatrist, I finally gained up the courage to call and schedule an appointment. Like I’ve said previously in some of my other postings, I’m not one to open up about my feelings and tell a complete stranger what I’m feeling when I don’t even know what I’m feeling and why I’m feeling the way that I feel. I decided that I would rather tell a stranger my problems than to suffer more. I’m constantly beating myself up over the smallest of things and constantly feeling down/sad/angry for no reason that I can think of. I can’t wait to finally(hopefully) get some answers and help that I’ve been needing or a long time..

YAY! I'm so glad to hear that you've taken this huge step! I think the first step is always the hardest, but I think it's always easier once you get there. Don't pressure yourself to have all the answers to your problem when you go in to your session. Go in and give yourself a lot of grace. I'm very proud of you for stepping up and choosing to do what is good and right for you!

Praying for you~
