I'm not really here

" anxiety since i was a toddler where i had to see a child psychologist"

I was also seeing a child psychologist from a young age, I remember from 5, not sure if it was younger than that. Apparently it was due to my older brother who had trouble adjusting.

My son has autism (high functioning) and I asked my smiley - doctor if I had the same problem - she sent me to therapy instead where it appears my childhood refrain 'it's not faaaaaaaaaaaaiiirr' was apparently legitimate and not whining and the basis of all my adult issues with relationships with other people.

I hope you find out what your issues are before you get to my age (39). Good luck with finding an answer for yourself.

Thank you Mina smiley - smiley
Its nice to hear from someone like-minded. Im not sure what caused my anxiety, i was being medicated from when i was a toddler and it was crushed and put into my bottle (on advice from my child psychologist!)
It has taken many years, lots of therapy, some good councellors, some bad, lots of medication, and therapy but the questions are still there. My local Mental Health team i have decided arent great and need a really big shake up! But hopefully like you say i'll get somewhere eventually and i wont have to wait another 24 years of going through the same thing!
Thanks for your lovely message though, its nice to hear from someone who suffers from anxiety. Its not a great place to be is it x
Thanks again smiley - smiley
