Thrive to spite them
So Friday is the end of my Intensive Outpatient Program. It was supposed to be tomorrow but I screwed up and scheduled an appointment with my therapist and it's considered a duplication of services. So it's Friday.
I had emailed my meds manager and hadn't heard back so I called and made an appointment. I need her to send stuff to the short term disablity insurance so I can get that extended. Got a letter from them and I'm approved (finally I knew this was going to happen I'd get all of it finished at the same time the program finished) I'll see payment in 1-2 payroll periods. But I can get partial coverage while I work part time and that's what I need from the meds manager. The disability stuff runs out Tuesday.
However I'm not getting in a panic so either the new meds are working or I'm just better at handling all of this.
I think Mom's coming but she may not be able to. She keeps having anxiety about travelling and I don't want her to be upset so... I want her to come but not at the expense of it causing her distress.

sj, that's very good news.
askye, sounds like all the work you're putting into your mental health is proving quite fruitful. It's really great to hear how well you're doing.

Askye, it really sounds like the therapy is working. I'm so glad. Dinner has been eaten. Now back to RI to get my car. So tired.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Askye, it sounds like you're doing really well.
I got another first-round interview. I've got a second-round interview at a different school next week, and if they do offer me that job, then I'm pretty sure I'm going to accept, but I don't know how many people they're having for the second-round interviews, so I don't know what my chances are.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Glad to hear all is well, sj!
askye, glad you're doing so much better!
Hil, continuing job~ma! That woman on the plane sounds like one of my relatives. Some people just can't stop talking when they're nervous... and some of them are nervous all the time.
I was hungry so I ate and now I feel too full. I did eating wrong.

It's about that time I pull out the earbuds and plug in the tunes. Seriously, lady, I'm not here to entertain you or be your therapist; find another coping strategy.
