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.
I don't know why it is feeling so daunting to find a new therapist
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.

Yes, my annual big birthday weekend at Mom's condo at the beach starts sometime tomorrow afternoon. It will include a nice restaurant dinner with TCG
link, a lobster dinner at Mom's, an ice cream cake made by Mom from ice cream bought at the awesome homemade ice cream shop that is only open in the summer, and hopefully some snuggle time with my toddler niece. In case I fail to mention sometimes how incredibly lucky I am.
That sounds perfect, sj. May your loved ones spoil you as you deserve.
Hi Trudy! Good to hear the move is behind you. What a mess. Of course I have no concrete plans yet, but I will be headed in a NY direction before too long. I am unfortunately delayed by a big 70th b'day party for my MIL. I love her and she deserves to be surrounded by family and friends, but her birthday is July 14th and I really thought I would be up north by then. And it isn't like I could leave a couple days before, so after it is.
Oh, sj, i can't see how you think you are possibly being whiny. All good thoughts to you, my dear.
Trudy! Glad you are all moved! What a PITA -- ugh. I hates it.
Yay, Trudy! Moving is hard. I hope you were able to do nothing but relax tonight.
Strix, mostly because I am sick of myself at this point, so I assume everyone else is sick of me too.
Tea:
Strix, good luck with your move! I know this must have been a difficult decision for you.
