What happens next..? 10 points best answer!!?!
Question: What happens next!.!.!? 10 points best answer!!!?
Sorry, i asked this Q earlier on but would appretiate a few more suggestions!. Not that the others wern't good-they were great!! I just need to calm my nerves a bit!.!.!.
I'm just wondering what would happen during my next doctors appointment (and if anything needs to happen after)!. I went last week because i regularly cut myself and i just seem to nearly always be down, angry, tired and generally i just feel crap all the time!.
Last week she gave me a questoinnaire and a website to look at!. She told me to book another appointment in two weeks(in a few days now) and i'm really worried about it!. I think if i know generally what she might say i might feel a bit better about it!. I know noone can actually tell me exactly what will happen but just an idea would be really helpful!.!.!.
She said she was going to talk to the community phychiactic nurse!.!.!.
Will she just ask me loads of Qs again!?
If she wants me to talk to someone how long will that take!?
I'm so scared :(Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Yes, she may be asking questions again as it's important your doctor know "where you're coming from" and get to know you better if she's to be of help to you!. You didn't say which website she suggested you visit but the link I've attached is a Big Bowl of information on many subjects relating to teen mental and physical health !.!.!. you'll find info' about cutting from this page!.
You should be congratulated for realizing this is not a healthy thing to be doing and for stepping out to make an appointment to see your doctor!. There is, absolutely, nothing to be nervous about - the most important thing you can do for yourself is to be as open and honest as possible!. No-one can, really, tell you what happens next as things progress differently with individual doctors - treatment options vary, from patient to patient - what's right for one may not be suitable for another!. Your doctor may prescribe medication for you and will, most likely, refer you to a psychiatrist!. A doctor of psychiatric medicine has had many years of training before being qualified in this area of medicine - about 11 to 12 years before being able to treat patients!. Please remember that someone becomes a doctor because they are a Helper Type of person otherwise they, certainly, wouldn't commmit to all these years of study after high school, would they!?
I realize everyone wishes to have some areas they don't want to talk about - this is a personal privacy issue for all of us but the only way to find the underlying cause for what you're doing is having information dug up from where it's being hidden in your subconscious!. If you "open up", you'll discover your psychiatrist can be both your doctor and your friend - this will happen when you become able to trust your doctor with your personal privacy issues!. I hope all goes well with you - it sounds as if you're on the right track !.!.!. be patient with yourself and learn as much as you can about your disorder as this will help with your healing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

She is hoping for the chemical imbalance, as there are medicines that can lift you!.

Don't be scared! Congrats on reaching out and getting the help you need!. If she hasn't already, your doctor will probably give the names of some local therapists or psychologists you can talk to!. (Primary care physicians don't specialize in mental health so they usually refer you to someone who can better help you)!.
She may also ask you more questions to decide whether you're suffering from depression or an anxiety disorder, if she hasn't already!. She may even suggest taking an anti-depressant (probably one in the SSRI group like Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa etc!.!.!.)!.
If she does want you to talk to someone else, you'll probably have to call and make an appointment with that person!. Depending on how busy they are, it might take from a couple days to a over a week to see them!. If she doesn't refer you to a therapist, ask her to!
