Well they called this morning. I have orientation in a month. I'm on team one (I have no idea what that means.. lol I will find out at orientation) which has a waiting list of 2 to 3 months. That's not bad! I should be rolling by November at the latest. I'm still on a wait list for a psych but that could be six months to a year still.
Also, I went to a walk in clinic for a doctor. He was recommended to me because he used to work in the program I'm going into! He switched my nighttime meds (old ones weren't working and didn't want to deal with upping the doses) and gave me both ativan and lorazepam (same drug, you take them differently!) to try and see which works better. I have to go back in a few weeks and then he will take another look at my meds. I think he's going to get them sorted out for me! Much better doc for mental health than my old one! And he is funnier than shit. He got quite the hoot out of my slangy accent and had much fun teasing me about being a country girl! I like him.
So that's the update, next one will be in a month after orientation!
