Welcome Fragil3!
You'll find lots of information here and once you say what treatment you are on you'll most likely get feedback from others who can share their experience.
Sadly there isn't a treatment that makes it just go away, they all take time to work. Plus sometimes a treatment doesn't work as well for some as it does others. But it sounds like you are on the right path by seeing a doctor and starting treatment.
It is very difficult to not feel self conscious about this disease. Fred offered great advice in trying not to get depressed. Your family and friends should be supportive and it's important to have people support you so that you don't feel alone. This forum is great for that as we know personally what it feels like, but it's important that you have people close to you that you can talk to.
Good luck at your appointment!
