Advice on seeking help
Anxiety Support / by MountainThyme

...See more Hi there! I'm really just hoping for a little advice from the community on speaking to a doctor about anxiety. I've never been to see a doctor about mental health before and if I'm honest I'm not really sure what the procedure is? The whole thing is, funnily enough, making me very anxious and I almost don't want to go because of that. But I want help because I really feel like it's negatively impacting my life and has been for some time, and I have no idea how to help myself, or where to start. I'm also very scared that I might not be taken seriously or be told there's nothing to be done about it. The idea of being this way forever is awful. Should I make an appointment? And if I do, should I do anything like write down points on how I've been feeling? I'm generally terrible at talking face to face with people about myself so it might be good to have something to refer to, but I'm not sure if that'd just seem stupid. Sorry for for all the questions! Any pointers would be so helpful cause I'm really not sure about this at all. Rae
