Hang in there, msbelle.
Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh no msbelle!
I am glad you are OK tommy!
My cafeteria is serving Fish and Chips. And it is potato chips!
Potato chips with fish?! Abomination.
I have talked with a person! Nothing is resolved yet, but they are working on it. I cannot believe that I let this drag on so long. I hate calling places and dealing with potentially complicated stuff I feel ignorant about. See also: home repairs, car shit, dating.
That's funny, Sophia.
Yay person! I hear you on the avoiding dealing, msbelle.
I have adulted in the sense of finally making an appointment to see my shrink (although she really just manages my meds, we don't do any non-chemical therapy, there's probably a precise term for that). I think I was supposed to do that six months ago, but the reminders I set for myself are too easy to ignore. I wish they would let me just set the next appointment when I am done with the current one, but last time they didn't want to do that for some reason. Maybe I will ask again.
Are there psychiatrists that do therapy as well as medication management? Because I would love to find me one of those.

Of course it is!

Well, sure. Because that's the worst! The WORST.

Oh yeah, that's annoying.
Looks like something was just mislabeled which led to a misfiling and a permanent purgatory status until I called. Approx 12 weeks and I should have my refund.
While on hold I paid off my vacation expenses on my credit card, so at least I did something fiscally responsible. I am on a big push through summer to get the plastic paid off (again). Thank god it is not anywhere as bad as it was 10 years ago. I should maybe look for 0% balance transfer offers though, that could save me some $$ while I pay this one down.
My last meeting of the afternoon finished early, and since I was halfway to home anyway, I just came home. It's delightful.

What I've heard is that there's so much more money in managing medications that psychiatrists end up doing exclusively that.
