Do it Sarah. I honestly was so nervous about going, that's what took me 7 years. I even borrowed an Ativan just to get calm enough to go! I was in there about 20 minutes and later thought to myself, what the heck did I wait to long for? It was so much easier than I thought it would be. Medicine hasn't kicked in yet, of course, but at least I'm moving forward to feeling better. Isn't it funny how we defend to the death our choice to medicate our children in order to give them a quality of life, but bulk at doing the same for ourselves?
I don't think I could do therapy at this point. Too much talking and crying. But this I can do.
Good luck with your decision. I don't think you'll regret going.
