|  1st Appointment
Hello all, I wanted to inform everyone that my first appointment for my therapist is today. See it wasn't until May but yeaturday she called and told me she had a cancellation. So I took the appointment today. Wish me luck.

Good luck Amanda! I don't like first appointments with all the history taking, but it gets better after that.

well I guess it was okay... The lady was nice.... but I dont understand something... is a therapist and a psychiatrist two different people... well you see the woman has even me another appointment with her but also an appointment with a psychiatrist.... I thought she was one... I dont understand.... I just told her what I thought about and how I felt about things.... does this mean Im crazy? I should have asked her why she thought I needed to see one. Damn.....

A psychiatrist can treat with medication and a therapist can't. She is probably sending you in just to see if medication would be helpful. That does not mean you are crazy. If I want an anti-depressant or anti-anxiety medication I am sent to see a psychiatrist for the prescription.
