seeing a counsellor tommorow, what should I say?

[ashlee]

im seeing a counsellor or therapist or whatever tommorow. My moms making me go because a month ago i had a break down and said i hated myself wanted to kill myself. heh. 

I know what I want to say about that, how should i bring up md? How should I tell her? How do I explain without her thinking its schizophrenia?  should I show her pictures ive drawn or posts from this site?

I'd also recommend printing off Cordellia's study and giving that to her to read, too.

I think it's a good idea to show her this website, yes. Emphasize that you know the difference between reality and fantasy, as well, so she doesn't think it's schizophrenia. Also, emphasize that they're not hallucinations, but merely imagination.
