Default Re: What are the first few things that come to your mind when a guy has never had a g

First I went to a clinic to get a letter to see a psychiatrist, but he perscribed medication instead and refused to write me a letter. I didn't trust him and he extremely quick - he just didn't listen to me - so I never filled the perscription out. It was for effexor and valium.

So then a little while later I went to go see a psychologist. I went for 20 hours or so and he never helped me. I just thought he was taking my money to be honest and he said several things that didn't allow me to place much confidence in him. I got pretty bummed out about that, so I tried to do things on my own for a bit again.

I went to a second clinical doctor and he just told me I could see a psychiatrist at the crisis center without a letter, as well as talk to a crisis worker. I didn't know about this option until this week. I wasn't sure if it was for me just yet, since I had an okay week so far and I've been trying things, but after today and the advice here, I decided to finally to give it a call.

I work at a slower pace than most people. It takes me awhile to make decisions and formulate my mind. I'm not an "act now" kind of person. I find it really hard to do that.

Anyway, that's what I've done so far.
