Call at 11

I’m absolutely petrified for the phone call assessment today at 11, it’s to decide on treatment for my C-PTSD buttttt I’m so scared that they will suggest EMDR because that treatment sounds horrible to do

The call is up to an hour and I’m so scared I’ll shut down and go mute, they are aware that I find calls hard but idk

hey @Rose113 🙂

i totally get why you’re feeling that way, it’s a huge thing, and it makes total sense to be scared. i am really proud of you for going through with it even though it’s this hard!!

just remember, you don’t have to do or agree to anything you’re not ready for. you can let them know what you’re comfortable with and what feels like too much right now.

as for the call itself, you’ve already told them that phone calls are difficult for you, that’s really brave. if you do go quiet, that’s ok too! you’re not doing anything wrong. you’re showing up for yourself, and that’s the most important thing.

i hope it goes ok for you - we’re always here

She phoned back and she’s put me on the waiting list for CAT therapy which is cognitive analytic therapy
