Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For my own problems, I find walking around humming Wild Ones is helping me.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It appears that they do not have the same sort of psych set up that we do here.

If you are in immediate danger to yourself you should go to the emergency room, call 911, or call the Suicide Prevention Hotline 1-800-273-8255.

It looks like the best thing is to go to Urgent Care-- because your situation cannot wait 24 hours, but it is not immediate.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

That's it, Jesse. It looked ideal because I could get daily care but go home and sleep in my own bed at night. It seemed safe to me without feeling imprisoned.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Allyson, I hope you can get the care you need!!

I am so tired of this health system we have. It's beyond dysfunctional. It's anti functional, and that goes double for mental health.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Yep. On Tuesday, I could not go to just any Urgent Care place, I had to find the Urgent Care facility that my insurance co. recommended.

I am trying to find a primary health physician (since I don't have one since I moved). 2 doctors said "no" because of my insurance (Blue Cross).


Amy - Jan 31, 2013 9:27:04 am PST #9517 of 30001
Because books.

Seriously, le nubian? We have Blue Cross and I've never had a problem except in one specific case.

Allyson, just remember we're here if you need anything. I'm so sorry the broken healthcare system is making it more difficult than it needs to be.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Our health insurance, until this year, would not pay for physical therapy unless we had previously had surgery on the body part(s) that needed the therapy, and the PT was indicated as part of the recovery. No lie.

But for whatever reason, this year now PT is covered even if it is not post-surgery. I have no idea why the prohibition on it -- were people frivolously undergoing really hard, humiliating exercises [with a co-pay] just for funsies?

But for whatever reason, this year now PT is covered even if it is not post-surgery.

Probably has something to do with Obamacare.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I need to throw out a FUCK CANCER. I'm in the office today and found out a gal who sits near me just got a stage 4 diagnosis. Another gal is sending me the Caring Bridge link. FUCK, FUCK, FUCK.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Steph,

I think it has more to do with insurance companies finally realizing that good PT treatment reduces long-term costs.

Amy,

I specifically chose Blue Cross (and have had it since I have been a working adult) because it gives me flexibility. Stupid.
