I'll have my first appointment with a psychiatrist tomorrow. What should I expect?
  • So glad you had a good experience!!

    Something I'd like to add for future lemmings who come to view responses is that psychiatric appointments are often shorter than therapy appointments. A psychiatrist is a doctor who will try to isolate problems/symptoms/causes and then prescribe meds or techniques to help. Therapists can't diagnose or prescribe so their efforts are based more in talking and teaching techniques to help with whatever you're dealing with. Also if you can afford it, it's great to have one of each!

  • I confess my favorite part of reddit was reading anonymous drama. Help me make a list of lemmy communities where people spill the sweet juicy beans please

    Reddit slowly became filled with hate
  • I think it's universal across the internet. I've seen the comments on ig get more an more aggressive too. I think we're all subconsciously anticipating conflict
