All of my doctors have decided that I should be taken out of the mental health program ever and ymorning and placed in a 4 night a week drug therapy group. We talk about our problems, but we also talk about our drug use. I take vicodin for my migraines and I often take too may for my emotional problems and I hide my pain. I have had a lot of emotional problems and I hide them with pain meds I take too many to cover the scary stuff that noew I am going to have to talk about if front of a bunch of hard core drug addicts. I am terrified.

I met with a new psychologist today. The outpatient program has each [erson meet with one of their doctors and they do a real in-depth interview. My psych was an idiot anyway and never listened about my meds. The doctor I met with today was very nice, a great listenener and very much want to make sure I get on the right medications so that not only does the therapy help, but so does the meds, She is putting me on Prozac and her goal is to get me up to 80 mgs. She is starting me at 20. And then she is pytting me on clonazepam to help me sleep. So I am off the Lexipro and xanax. The lexipro was way too low she said and probably making me more sad.
Group is going ok. I havent spoken much, but I am trying to give feedback to others who talk and I have talked a little about the abuse. I am still just a little scared and uncomfortable and want to know these people a little bit and then I will feel more comfortable opening up.
On another note, I have a date tomorrow night. It is with a Judge. He is cooking me dinner. I think a judge is a pretty safe date. I will mention him to a lot of people so theyknow about the date, and give Debi his number and ask her to call me around 9:30 or 10 to make sure I am okay. I hope this is a good idea. He sounds great and weve had some good conversations and hes real cute and he is a judge.

How did the date go? Good job with covering your tracks with Debbie.
And I'm so glad you're reaching out for help, you're doing a great job, remember it takes time to open up, when you're ready you will, Remember it's as much as you put into it that you will get out of it
Much love
I had my evaluation yesterday at Presbyterian Mental Health Center and they called a few hours ago and I start tomorrow morning. I am scared to death and also a lttle glad that I am finally going to get the help I need.

You're in my thoughts, hon. Just take it one day at a time and try and look at it like you're doing the best thing you could possibly do for yourself and being incredibly strong in doing so. {{hugs}}
