got an appointment with my doctor tomorrow (anxiety/depression), what should i expect?
i'm pretty shit at talking about my problems, i feel like cancelling. i'm worried i'll go "uhh yeah im ok, i just been down, its fine" then he dismisses me

bump. how do you know when its time to try meds?
>>24959090
bump. thought r9k would be up on this stuff?
he will probably give you SSRI, its shit, but you can still try it
>>24959783
desu im just worried hes gonna say im just being a phaggot and to try harder, or fix my shitty life decisions (just get a gf bro!)
>>24960520
are you seing a psychiatrist or your normal doctor? he isn't supposed to say that, they are fucking normies and will give you bullshit advice like "just bee ur self", but still they are not supposed to diminish your issue.
If your doctor is shit don't hesitate to see another one.
>>24960650
hes just a doctor. iv heard he's pretty cool so hopefully i wont get the normie brushoff
i feel like cancelling this shit, i don't even care about my life, but i feel like thats probably me trying to self sabotage or run away or something

iktf
don't sabotage yourself, you deserve to be happy anon.
go to the appointement, it doesn't engage you in anything anyway
im really shitty at talking about my problems too, i think its why im still in the same shitty situation i was as a kid

thanks im gonna go just so i don't feel the "what if" disappointment afterwards. fuck it
>>24961654
also if you are scared of not being able to explain your issue, write down on a paper everything so you don't forget to talk about it. it can help you not spagetti
what do you expect from the doctor? how is your depression and anxiety?
>>24961914
yeah i should do that
iv dropped out of life for a couple years and i dont want to bother. life seems like garbage, too stressful, dont care about anything, dont enjoy anything, want gf but too much of a loser and too anxious

i hope you find medication that help you. try not to be discouraged by anti-depressant
they are supposed to take time before taking effect and many people have to try 2-3 different one before finding a good one.
also maybe you can ask for benzo, it can be addictive but other robots say it can make you a chad

Just go and check it out. If you feel like you don't connect with your doctor or shrink, you can always go to a different one.
