This is taken in the morning of 27 December 2020. Where I get up as early as I could to go seek professional help on my mental health.
Fortunately I have asked around a day earlier regarding the process. When I asked to go to psychiatry unit, the PPP (Pembantu Pegawai Perubatan) quite astounded when I told them I wanted to see psychiatrist. As they thought I was visiting someone in the psychiatry unit. They do ask a few series of questions. Then asked me to fill in the covid19 form before giving me the queue number by 7.51 am. Then I need to do series of test. They first took my blood pressure reading. Then asked me to give urine sample. After that, they draw my blood. Then lastly they do ECG test. Finished consulted by doctor by 9.15 am. Which they asked me to wait as they have asked psychiatrist to come for me. All that took me around 1 hour and 24 minutes. By 11.27 am I finished talking to the psychiatrist. Where my next appointment will be 4 January 2021. Basically 8 days after today. They also gives 1 written report where I need to bring together during my second meeting with the psychiatrist. Really feel like a mountain of burden taken off from my chest after about 1 hour talking to the psychiatrist. Worth the time and effort spend for it.
What matter now I know what kind and level of my mental is. And know better way to handle it with help from professional.
For those who are afraid to seek for help from psychiatrist, can always go for counsellor first. That would be a very good step and starter for you.
Till then, have fun in talking with psychiatrist.
