So I had My first meeting with My councilor today. She seemed to be very professional.
She repremanded me cause I'm not taking the full doses of medication My psych perscribed me. She days I def have anxiety and depression and gave me a number to a new psychiatrist as I told her I wasn't thrilled with My last psych I saw.
Funny thing, I'm a 32 year old man. I have 4 children and been marries for 9 years and within 10 minutes she had me crying like a baby. Some questions got straight home and can do that I guess. I feel like she can help me a lot. Another ray of hope as I'm trying to better back to "normal"

Yeah!!

I am so glad that you are started with your sessions, and on your way!

Yes, emotions will come to the surface, but this is a good thing, and when healing can begin.

Keep us updated on your progress.

Hey ir0k!

Sounds like you found a good one! Congrats and good job!

There's no reason to feel bad about crying - like SC said, that's where healing begins. You need to identify and release pain that's holding you back.

Obviously, I'm no doctor, but I would think the antidepressants would help with the off balance feeling, if it's a symptom of your anxiety or depression. Well, the combination of those and therapy. If symptoms come from A&D, then relieving the Anxiety and Depression should help relieve the symptoms. :D

True. I'm only on 5 mg escitlopram so I'm sure once I better to 10 I might feel some real changes.
Thanks for the reply berock
