Hello Cin1 and everyone,
I have to say, Cin1, that you look beautiful! I am glad you are okay for now. Joseph Campbell says, "Eternity is always now."

This morning was one of my days when I felt out of place in the human race (!). I'm trying the practice of mindfulness, so now I'm placing that thought on a cloud and letting it pass on by instead of letting it catch me and trap me in a state of alienation and depression.

My regular psychiatrist hasn't called me back to set an appointment, but I found a psychologist on the web (local) who looks very good and practices something called DBT using mindfulness. She's in a group with M.D.s who can write prescriptions, but I think she may be good. She has groups. I'm trying not to get my hopes up very much, but maybe there's a reason my psych. didn't call me back. I kept calling about the other group (bipolar) I'd heard about and finally got somebody. Although it took so long to reach someone, there'll be a mtg in about 9 days now. I'm trying not to rue the two meetings I missed due to not having spoken to a person with the correct facts (trying not to rue it too much!).
