Doctor: okay and what makes you say that <5:24:50 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: but <5:24:50 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I don't know I just feel like well I'm taking this medication ideally supposed to help me <5:24:58 PM> Yanique Attah -

Patient: expect that after taking the medication that I would be better <5:25:09 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: yeah um just like thinking about like work and like the things I have to do there I have an upcoming evaluation so I'm kind of worried about that and just feeling like man I'm working so hard at work but I still feel like maybe I'm not you know <5:25:25 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: time <5:25:33 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: not the best <5:25:34 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: um and I'm just really nervous about that evaluation so <5:25:38 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: has got me down the last couple of days <5:25:39 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: I'm really sorry to hear that <5:25:41 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I just stressors in life just in general you know <5:25:43 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: oh yeah so I know one thing we talked about at the last appointment was your referral to sort of the like a therapist have you considered making that appointment at all <5:25:45 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: mm-hmm <5:25:57 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: oh no I just don't feel like that's what I need I feel like <5:25:57 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I <5:26:01 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: oh well so typically they're like a lot more trained than like the normal person on the street better trained than me to sort of like bring up difficult topics and talk about them and they might even bring up stuff that you like didn't think needed to be talking needed to be talked about so um if it's something you're open to I would really recommend making the appointment is there anything like specific holding you back <5:26:04 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: and what is that person going to tell me that I don't already know <5:26:18 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: here <5:26:36 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: on besides I'm just thinking it's like not for me I spoke to my mom and she kind of agreed that like no one else in our family has ever done therapy and you know she kind of just recommended that I just pray just pray about it but that's kind of what I've been doing <5:26:40 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay <5:26:51 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay <5:26:56 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay and having a strong like faith and praying about it that's like always important and I don't think you should sacrifice that at all but some of the things that you have mentioned so far like you feel like you're taking the meds but you're concerned that they're not working it's just really like making me believe that there might be a missing piece and I think that working with a mental health counselor could be that piece <5:27:22 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: oh you know like I told you last time I'll definitely think about it but <5:27:24 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay and that's okay that's okay um <5:27:27 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I don't know I'm probably have to do my research about it but I really don't think it's for me <5:27:36 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: what other things do you think <5:27:39 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: could maybe bring change bring Improvement in your life <5:27:45 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: and <5:27:45 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay <5:27:48 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: honest I really don't know <5:27:50 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I've been trying to like work out because people say that helps and it helps some but I still feel like there's still like <5:27:59 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I feel like there's still still some things that um <5:28:00 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: he <5:28:04 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: that can be better you know <5:28:04 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: yeah um anything <5:28:06 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I've have all these thoughts I should be able to click control my thoughts on I'm still having difficulty with that um but you know it's just a journey so I just have to figure it out <5:28:09 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay <5:28:14 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: oh do you feel like the thoughts on have like progressed at all or have they kind of just been there the whole time <5:28:23 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: um <5:28:24 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay do you have anyone else in your life that you can talk to whether it be like your mom or a friend <5:28:26 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: they kind of been there the whole time and of course like they change depending on like what's going on in my life but <5:28:34 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: yeah <5:28:39 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: yeah <5:28:42 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: oh well that's actually really good to hear that you've already like tried confiding in someone because that was actually going to be my next suggestion is to see if that's something you like to begin with so if you really like talking your sister that makes like <5:28:42 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: I'm really close to my sister and we talked a lot and that really helps me <5:28:47 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: um you know anytime I'm feeling down I give her a call and we just like talk things through <5:28:54 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: mm-hmm <5:29:10 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: that makes me excited because I think that working with a mental health counselor could be a good option <5:29:12 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: um yeah of course like you know I don't want to tell her like my deepest thoughts so I guess you know having like an outsider would be helpful <5:29:19 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: do you ever feel like there are some things you can't tell your sister <5:29:23 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay <5:29:30 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay okay yeah I agree as well um again at the end of the day it's your decision but <5:29:33 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: mm-hmm <5:29:40 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: know do you think there are any other changes that I can specifically help you with today <5:29:41 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: um but no now that I'm thinking about it it probably would be helpful so I'm gonna think about it a little bit more and then maybe at my next appointment we can talk about it some more <5:29:48 PM> Samantha Gilbert - Doctor: okay yeah and you have the phone number if you ever change your mind and I'm absolutely happy to talk about that whenever with you <5:29:58 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: mm-hmm <5:30:03 PM> Yanique Attah - Patient: okay thank you so much ________________________________________________________________________________ End of transcript at Oct 14, 2025, 5:30:06 PM
