So, I am (finally) having the first appointment for my diagnosis. I would be lying if I said I wasn't stressed at all... Any tips?

For context, I'll be with my father (they asked for a parent to come), with whom I have a complicated relationship (no hostility, but still he is stressful to be around).

Thank you! I guess I'll still mask anyway because, well, I can't picture myself not masking at all when interacting with a stranger, and even less if my father is present. Also this shouldn't be my last appointment so hopefully I'll have other occasions.
