Tons of spoons, and ~ma to you, SJ.
Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Much ~ma and love, sj. {{sj}}
Thanks, everyone. I'm sorry to be so whiny and meme, when I know other people here are dealing with very difficult things. I'm really exhausted and probably low iron since, tmi, I've been bleeding for two weeks now. Which leads to me being a very cranky bitch. The only silver lining to the surgery being next week is I can still go to the beach for my birthday weekend and try to relax.
I spoke to the new therapist this week, who will not be my new therapist anymore because her office is not handicapped accessible, despite being listed as such on my medical insurance website. So, I guess I will start from scratch with that search.
Oh sj, you didn't need that. I'm sorry.

Yeah, a narrow staircase in a Victorian is really a no go for me, especially with my current, non existent energy levels. I don't know why it is feeling so daunting to find a new therapist. Maybe I'm putting too many restrictions on my search.

Classic Catch-22 - when you most need the help you're least in the right headspace/energy level/spoon supply to be able to deal with the lists and insurance and "interviewing", & etc. If it makes you feel any better, I think it's completely understandable that trying to find a new therapist in general, and especially right now, would feel daunting verging on overwhelming. But I do hope you find someone soon because I'd love for you to be getting that much more support.
Lord, sj, your circumstances kind of rank at the top of anybody's list of Shit That's Hard to Deal With.
Do you have to pay for visits that are essentially interviews? Probably. Damn, what a waste of money that must feel like.

Probably. I've never actually done that. I've mostly eliminated people from the list based on location or inability to return a phone call. The therapist I was just dealing with was only on the phone, so no co-pays, at least that I know of.
Just checking in! I finished my move and am recovering at my friend's house. When did I become such an old woman that two days of darkness, air conditioning, and flexeril are necessary after exertion?
I am reading along in Bitches, however, and you're all in my heart. x0x0x0x0

This. I hope you are able to find a therapist that is both convenient and helpful. I'm so sorry you have so much to deal with right now.
Did you say you were going to the beach this weekend? I hope you are able to find peace, and some relief from the physical trauma.
