Today I had my first psychotherapy in years
Just wanna share my journey so far. Might keep sharing here moving foward.
Context: Im starting my healing journey after 5 years of negligence. I was diagnosed with BD type 2 around 7 years ago. Was medicated on the first 2 years since diagnosis, quit meds cold turkey ever since. Last time doing therapy was 3 years ago.
Today is my 2nd session at this centre and 1st session of CBT. While I'm still not on medication atp (will see a psychiatrist on 27th, public healthcare bruh), therapy definitely helps me processing my thoughts and monitoring my symptoms. Currently Im in a mixed episode. Im seriously considering self admitting myself to the hospital but idk if its appropriate since Im still in control and safe with family members.
I think thats all for now
