simplyn2deepIts been a while...possibly first time ever...that I've done a personal post, but OMG I'm so anxious about my first video therapy appointment tomorrow morning.
See, my health insurance has been sending automated text messages about taking advantage of the telemedicine option they have with Babylon for the last month or so.
Well last Tuesday I downloaded the app, checked it out and that was it. It wasn't until a friend on FB talked about how she's been feeling since starting therapy that I opened the app back up, answered some basic questions and made a therapy appt for myself. This happened in the course of 8 hours.
Off and on during the week, I've gotten randomly anxious about the upcoming video appointment and now I'm 12 hours away from it and I'm even more anxious.
It was in talking to my best friend on Thursday or Friday that made me realize I really do need therapy. By just talking to her about what I would talk to the therapist about, I was choking up.
So...therapy appointment on Monday at 9am. And I'm nervous (I don't like video calls).

*hugs*

I'm checking about how to make another appt with her through the app. I need to give myself time to at least do what she suggested that I do before the appointment. So I'll probably make an appointment for a couple of weeks from now
