KGirl - new life, new stuff

[KGirl]

I called the mental health services for my health care provider and there aren't any earlier openings because new patient visits are a certain length of time and they only have so many slots/week. So my appointment is March 10 which I guess isn't too bad at this point (two weeks out). And I guess I don't feel like I'm an "emergency" to argue for whatever they offer people in emergency situations. Back at BD I was able to get something within a week because I was A) crying on the phone with them, B) because of that they gave me a referral to a clinic that wasn't the primary one, but is farther away.. and I did that but ended up not being all that satisfied with the person I was working with ultimately. So I don't know what else I can do at this point. I never set up a general doctor/primary care person, I just have an OB-GYN I do annual exams with.

Feeling somewhat better today, I think yesterday's combination of not following the usual routine (being at a conference in a different building, surrounded by a lot of people, with a lot of "listening" and non-active time) plus not being careful about alcohol was not helpful for me. I just need more sleep now! Did not sleep well last night (again, the drinks.. sigh).
