Hey there. Ask away whatever you want answered and I'll do my best. Please avoid unconventional capitalization and spelling - it makes the questions harder to read and so I'm less likely to answer.

I'm going to see an adolescent psychiatrist for the first time in about a week and I was wondering what I should expect. I'm going for depression and self-injury, if that makes a difference. I just wondering what I cn epect when I go there. Thanks so much. I'll rate high.

Basically you can expect them to ask questions that will help them to understand why you're committing self-injury and how long it's been going on, what's happened during that time...and they'll ask stuff that's going to make you think, trust me. Been there, done that. Once they find something that's a serious contributor to the depression and self-injury, then they'll probably get into questions about your past and things that could built up or trigged the depression, they'll ask about if you have a family history of depression etc...just questions that will help then be able to help you. And don't expect them to suggest medication right away, they'll probably want to take time to know you a little better and try to help you without meds if possible.
