Finally pursuing a diagnosis...

Post Reply New Topic

I'm scared.

I'm afraid they'll tell me that I don't have AS, that I'm just an angry heartless bastard. I'm afraid that they'll just prescribe me a bunch of meds for depression and send me on my way.

I want to know for sure. AS does explain everything to me, but even a close (now former) friend accused me of hypochondria.

I know there's more going on in my head than AS too. Sometimes I'm convinced I'm insane, but I guess that line of though is self effacing.

I'm afraid of being misdiagnosed or being dismissed altogether.

My appointment is in a month. I'm taking leave from work because I know I'll be a total wreck.

Sorry, just venting.

That's what I'm afraid of, them misdiagnosing. We are completely on the same page.

..and I'm afraid they'll call me an angry, heartless bastard.'

Good luck, flailure. Let us know how it goes.
