Someone once asked...

“i'm afraid of going to my psychiatrist again, but i need to, but the place felt so sterile and made me break down, what should i do?”

Someone answered with kindness...

If this is your 2nd time going, you should go. Not because its a responsibility or because you booked a session but you should go for the part of you that wants to get better. It takes time to get used to some places and maybe you will end up hating your session this time too. But atleast after this you can not go back for the 3rd time and be absolutely certain that you dont like the environment and then you could try different options. I hope you end up finding peace of mind and heal from the things that brought you to the psychiatrist in the first place and you're amazing to work towards getting better.

Express this feeling to them. They might be able to help you with this feeling. Also try to think why that made you uncomfortable and tell this to them. Remote meetings might be a possibility or even moving the meetings somewhere more comfortable for you. You can also try to desensitize yourself to that environment with little steps. Think about that place and calm your thoughts. Then you can try to go places like that. Walk near those places and reassure yourself that there is nothing to be afraid. Step by step try approaching your umcomforts. I hope you all the good in the world
