Hi! So as some of you may know, I live in a small town away from everything so I haven't been able to get a shrink eventhough my anxiety has, for the most part, ruined my life. But now, after a year, I got a letter that says that they accepted me to one psychologist in another town. This is so great!
But my question/worry is: In that letter they first want me to get an eeg. Does anyone have any idea what for? I'm 100% sure that I dont have epilepsy since I've had those tests and a brain mri. Does an eeg show anxiety? Could they be looking for something else - say - schizophrenia..? That is my biggest fear of all time :/ And I've been in constant panic because of it. So what other things can an eeg show beside epilepsy?
