Went to a counselor, Finally!!!

[FrankWolfe53]

Hello, was just wanting to say that i went to a counselor today and he had some useful information, I have heard a lot of the information, but hearing it from him seemed different. I still need to meet another lady so she can do a medical evaluation to see what kind of medication would work best. Also will start therapy. Just going to get help, helped. And I am now starting to be able to wrap my head around the concept that this is mostly mental if not all mental. But it is mostly a depression thing but it was the anxiety that made me feel like i was going crazy and losing control with crazy thoughts and dreams.

Glad you made that first step of going in. Not easy but it's a very good step. Alankay

We are just about on the same page. I just went to the lady that evaluated me for medicine. She prescribed me fluoxetine (Prozac) 20mg and Ativan for panic attacks. I just started the Prozac Monday. Good luck to you!
