I'm also going to go next week to the self esteem group therapy. At least try it. I'm not the group therapy type, but she keeps reasuring me that its nothing like the AA meeting i experienced that one time down here.
I asked her if the pdoc is going to be the same. She said she's pretty sure that has been extended too. But she isnt sure on what they will charge me after its over. Thats something i need to speak to him about. And i dont see him till the 9th. So will let ya'll know what happens there.
Ain't this just killa! Yeah ya right!

That's wonderful! My therapist said family services was great. I guess he's right.
I hope you do evacuate, even if it's with a tent. I saw an acquaintance of mine in the paper having decided to stay in her home during Katrina. I don't know if I'm particularly afraid of death, but that's a death I'd be afraid of.
I understand the financial aspect. We haven't had a vacation in a long time because our vacation dollars go into the evacuation fund and got eaten by Gustav. I'm not sure my anxiety level would tolerate a state shelter. Although my inlaws, having evacuated at the last minute, ended up in one in Katrina. The people there really took good care of them, and were absolutely wonderful, until were were able to track them down.
I'm glad you're able to stay with your counselor. A counselor you know and trust is much better than a strange new one.
