[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 81680, member: 3527"] Tomorrow is the day, we have been waiting for a while, and it is finally time. My 5 year old has her first psychiatric appointment tomorrow to start the evaluation process. It seems like I should not be this nervous, as we have been to psychiatrist's before with the 13 year old, but she was ALREADY into all of this before she moved in with us, and she is older, too. I am having a difficult time preparing myself for this appointment tomorrow. My five year old is "my baby". I had her young, and her and I are very close, and the more I think about starting this whole process for her, my anxiety starting to flare up. I just keep telling myself that this is the right thing, and the BEST thing, for her. I keep trying to remind myself how much better she will feel once we find out what is going on and how to help her with it. Does anyone have any pointers on how to get through these pre-evaluation jitters (I know I am not the only parent to ever have them). Also, any information on what I can expect to happen tomorrow??
