So, trying to find a therapist has been challenging. Apparently finding a therapist close to where I live, who takes BCBS, and has evening or weekend hours is impossible. Maybe I should consider a career change?
After much searching and fruitless phone calls and emails, I have found someone who is across the street from my job. Now, ideally, I don’t want to have therapy during the work day because I would think that it would be mentally exhausting, but since I can’t find what I need closer to home, I have to take what I can get. Ironically, this therapist actually has weekend hours! But, I won’t be driving to Virginia on the weekend if I can avoid it; I’m hoping that we can find a regular appointment early in the morning, around lunch, or in the early evening. Here’s to hoping.
I have my first appointment with her this upcoming Monday. How fitting since Mondays are my Mind day :-)
I have been keeping a Gratitude Journal most days. I recently skipped a few days because, well, I forgot, but I picked it up again.
Yesterday was a good day, mentally. Although work is extremely stressful right now, I felt pretty good when I got home. Honestly, it helped that Delia decided to go to bed at 6:30, so I was able to spend the evening focusing on me and my husband. I went to bed at 9:30 and it was GLORIOUS. So glorious that I didn’t mind when Delia woke up at quarter to 6.
