Today I did my intake interview with one of the LPCs in the psych ward. It was the most awkward interview I had ever done. Chad was really nice but he jabbed into me and in to my feelings. He is digging where no one has dug before. It took it out of me. I am going to go to bed. Tomorrow is my first day of intensive out-patient. One of my fears though is that they are going to take away medication. I am not an addict or anything by far but medication is something that I need. Especially my Xanax I need that going into these social situations and when I have my panic attacks, which I have frequently. Well I guess I will have to see what happens and just be overly anxious till then.

I have been in partial hospitalization (which is worse than IOP) and they have not taken away my meds so I do not think you will have to worry about it. I believe it is your choice although they might give you some suggestions about the meds! Good luck with your first day =).
