Hi, Catherine21, well, the clinician didn't show up for the video call unfortunately, I was waiting for an hour before I gave up. Had to then email HealthHarmonie Minds letting them know what happened and that I'd like to re-book.
I'm guessing maybe the clinician was ill or had computer/phone issues.
Is there anything you're scared about in particular to do with the medication?

God thats frustrating i suppose im scared of the unknown this brain never stops but what would silence be like ? I know i live my life on red alert and its so draining and then what if it didnt work ? Ive never been good with the unknown or even change what would be your hopes for this medication

I hope that it helps me get the house straightened out and then for me to be able to keep on top of that so things don't deteriorate again, that I'll be able to look after my health better, that I'll be able to manage several obligations at once instead of it being really stressful and me not being able to think straight, and for me to finally do all the things I have planned but just never get around to doing them like money making ideas, etc.
