Thread, RE: Mental Health.
Tomorrow, I am resuming therapy. I have not been for several years since being diagnosed #actuallyautistic. Before that, an MD diagnosed me with generalized anxiety, for which I’ve taken meds since. But lately, the anxiety has worsened. (Cont’d).
And in fact, in response to certain events, has progressed to something closer to panic at times. I won’t bore with details, but in the midst of feeling that way a few days ago, the only other thing I could process was...I needed professional help. (Cont’d)
Even in my panic, and pain, I knew that if I muscled through this shit anymore on my own, with old advice, it would likely become worse, possibly one day, dangerous. So I emailed the therapist that very night, to make an appointment. (Cont’d)
So, soon the therapist will know my struggle again. And though I am not great at such realizations, I can begin the process of realizing, and planting into mind that I am not alone. And by mentioning it here, I confirm this issues position as a part of who I am. (Cont’d)
