Need some help with moving forward.

Hi Michael,
Cutter gave some good advice about telling the other LBS - do it ASAP! She deserves to know so she can protect herself legally, financially and medically. If OM is cheating on her she needs to know so she can be sure to double check the medical stuff at least. You never know what else OM has done behind her back.

When I first needed to go to IC I found a free place near where I live. Most cities have them. Then my only sacrifice was driving there. It was a little out of my way, but totally worth it. Once I could afford it I moved to a sliding scale place. Google "free counseling" and your state - see what pops up. Also if you have a Dr you can ask them - many times they can point you to free mental health resources or community programs. Are you religious? Check with local churches - alot of them have support groups or resources that are open to the public. There are enough low cost/ free places - but it takes some digging. Put in the effort - is has saved MY life and my PMA...

I'm glad the last posts weren't too harsh - ROBX really knows how to swing'em I think his post is a good wake up call! Feel free to vent here - that's what we are here for! We are also here to make sure we keep the bumpers up and help you work through the feelings that come with the venting. That's the wonderful part of this forum... I've come to find it necessary to get through my days. There are a lot of really great vets on here - do everything they say without argument and at least you will know you gave it your best shot - not matter what the outcome.

Make finding a free IC resource your priority - it will be the best thing you have ever done to GAL for yourself!! I promise.

Fight the good fight!!
