Don't be scared cvq, they're just coming to see what they can do to help you.

You will be fine

SNoraWotzThat · 09/06/2008 14:30

Have you made a cup of tea for yourself yet?

tiredemma · 09/06/2008 14:30

You will be fine.

WigWamBam · 09/06/2008 14:31

They're on your side and will do what they can to help you.

I know it's scary but this is a real step forward. You'll be fine, and will feel so much better knowing that something is being done for you.

TigerFeet · 09/06/2008 14:32

Things like this are never as bad as you think they're going to be.

You'll be fine

CVQ, I've posted on a few of your other threads & just want to wish you good luck. It'll be fine. I can't hang about as school run to do but will check again later to see how you got on. Chin up!

Not long now- Have you got any clothes that need sorting out. Ironing piles (socks to pair)? Laundry. That can keep me busy for hours and you can stop in a flash.

Littlefish · 09/06/2008 14:47

Take a few deep breaths.

Is there anything you can do to distract yourself?

Washing up?
Play with ds?
Phone a friend?

The anticipation is almost always worse than the actual thing. You are doing really well. I'm full of admiration for you for making the appointment.

Hold your nerve.
