Went really well, but yet again I forgot my symptom diary. Stupid memory and plus making sure I got my daughter ready. We discussed more about the arguing and maybe having something to do with some of the seizures. She gave me some papers to look over and see if they may help stop the arguing or at least making it not so bad. We figured out maybe fear plays a part in the seizures. I get a bit afraid when we have really heated arguments because I was abused growing up and although I know my fiance would never do that I still have that fear in me. I see the Psychologist in a few weeks and then see Rhonda (Psychiatrist) again in 3 weeks. Not sure what the Psychologist will say. I am open to trying meds. I also expressed my feeling of wanting to get checked to see if my seizures are from epilepsy because with pseudo seizures and epileptic seizures the meds are different. She listens to me though for the most part although she has a tendency to interrupt me from time to time. I guess I carry on a bit too much sometimes. LOL. Yay for having a good Psychiatrist for once.

You see there is a silver lining to everything. I am glad things are looking better for you, take a rest for yourself.
 
I wasn't abused as a child but I grew up in domestic violence and went on to date an extremely verbally and emotionally abusive scumbag. I'm here if you ever need to talk.

I'm really glad you're seeing a pdoc and tdoc. It's a huge step forward and will only benefit you.
