[quote=Anonymous]I would make her a gyn appointment, because any 19 year old should be seeing a gyn anyway. Try to find someone good and try to explain to her the issue before she goes in. Will she be home for summer? My next step would be to find a CBT trained therapist to work with her on the anxiety. Becuase with anxiety it's not about the specific issue they are anxious about -- if it's not fertility, it might be grades, or climate change, or ICE, or job prospects or whatever. The CBT program is about learning ways to teach your brain not to run in circles about these things, and to calm yourself. It's a brain circuit malfunction, and you can train your brain to work around it (or develop the circuit or whatever -- I've lost the metaphor). Anxiety is actually one of the most treatable conditions, because the therapy generally works and the meds also can work well as well. [/quote]
