Yeah, I started going to the counseling services about a month and a half ago... After I realized my family doctor should not have been prescribing this type of medication to me, and I decided to go to the psychiatrist here (you can't see the psychiatrist without going to counseling)... So far, it hasn't done much for me. The woman made me take a career test, even though I LOVE what I'm studying, and that's one of the few things I am confident of in my life! She's also chosen to fixate on my difficult with public speaking--which honestly, is not something I care about right now. I mean, yeah, it's something that is scary for me, but for the most part, I can avoid it in life, and I don't really feel like I'm missing out much. The "issue" as I see it is the fact that I wake up every morning feeling incredibly anxious, and sometimes I just panic and breakdown when it gets to be too much. I want to learn to turn off all of the negative feelings that constantly go through my head. I realize she's a person too, and is probably just trying to target problems that she knows how to "fix," but my feeling is that my anxiety is much more generalized...
