As i explained in my other blog I have been dealing with this for 4 years and just recently came clean to my mom about my true feelings about my alopecia. When we had discussed it further she asked if I would talk to someone about this. Today I went and saw my doctor about talking to someone about my feelings and that was really hard for me. My mom went with me and afterwards i felt really crumby. I feel like I have given up that i am too weak to deal with it on my own and that everyone i have told about my feelings feels i need therapy cause i cant handle it. I know that is not the case but I dont want people to feel sorry for me or think i am a basket case. I am the type of person that i do not like to share my true feelings I would rather write them down. I dont like people seeing the weak side of me.
When i was finished at the doctors i had to go to work and I clearly had alot on my mind. I then had my first panic attack in 2 years. It was horrible and probably the worst one i have ever had. I had to leave work and come home. I have my first meeting with this i guess therapist in 2 weeks and i am so scared. I have always thought if i can't tell the people closest to me about my feelings how can i talk to a complete stranger that wont even remeber my name when they get home. I know i should not think like this and i should put on foot in front of the other and except all the help i can get, but i cant help how i feel.
So needless to say it was a really bad day but on the up side I should be receiving my new wig anyday and I tried it on and i feel pretty in it which is a big change.
