I know this is a question being commonly asked so:

I have an intake appointment on July 3rd at the Regional Health Centre. Once that appointment is done, I will be sent to the service provider that can best serve my needs. (that's as much as I know right now!)

Matt: I have just received his package for counseling services from The Thunder Bay Children's Centre. He is on a waiting list for services. The wait should be no longer than three weeks. The package I got is FULL of information, contact numbers, and services they provide.

All in all, I got the ball rolling. Amazing how I fought for so long and hard back in Fort and never got anywhere, for either of us, on receiving help and just calling here from out of town they had me on SHORT waiting lists that day. Both Matt and I should be starting therapy before the end of July. Huge difference in treatment and the areas. I'm rather excited.

Just wanted to add I have made contact with the Panic and Anxiety Association of Ontario. They meet once a month (confidential support group) and the lady I spoke to is going to give me a call and pick me up for the next group in two weeks and she is going to take me for coffee with some other members of the group! Also I am to meet with the information guy from Canadian Mental Health Association. He has a lot of information and seems determined to get me out of the house and meeting people. LOL I meet with him in two weeks too. This should be interesting.
