Ever since I started having problems I was forced into rooms with people I didn't know so my mind of state around such people has been linked to situations where I can't do anything. I would just trigger, stare down the floor, unable to speak, even if I wanted to and hope it was all over soon. Because I couldn't move as well. Now however I've volunterely seeked out help and I haven't had one of these encounters in a year so the memories isn't as pressing. It still scares me just one bit since I haven't actually said a word to a shrink. I don't really need help with this, just wanted to know: what are your experiences with going to see a psychologist? Or someone else "certified".
I only went a few times, but it was good. It was a relief to talk about things to a person not involved - someone whose feelings I couldn't hurt. by talking about past stuff.
