Today, saw my doctor...
 
He wrote me a scip for anti-depressants but he encouraged me to wait and talk to my therapist I'm going to meet with on Monday because he doesn't want me getting on them, find I'm actually feeling okay, and then getting off of them again. He and I agreed, I would take the scrip for the meds and .... I don't HAVE TO take them, but see how it goes.

He's been my doctor since I got sober the first time over six years ago, so he obviously knows me and how I am. Anyway, he was also happy that I was going to therapy and I was excited to see him and get that part DONE!!

THE OTHER THING, I called the therapists office back to see how my insurance is going to be for the visits, $50 co-pay with UNLIMITED visits. *****OOOOOOOOO!!!! I can go talk my head off. :rant:

I'm so proud of myself, and excited to make the next steps to do whatever it takes, no matter what. :)

Awesome, vegibean!
Isn't it a great feeling to take care of ourselves???

I always dreaded it, thinking "responsibility is stifling and boring."

Now I find it exciting and liberating. :)
