Do you have a friend - maybe someone from your meetings_ that would go with you to your appointment? Sometimes just having that moral support helps.

I know it is scary, and if you are clinically dperessed, the depression itself makes you feel incapable of doing anything about it. I wish I was near you - I'd be happy to go with you. If you could just tell your new doc the symptoms you have.- If you had flu symptoms you wouldn't feel embarassed, would you? I do understand, I hope you don't think I am bullying...it's just a shame that society views things like depression as a weakness when it's more like brain chemistry all shook up. Hugs, let us know how you make out okay?
