Thanks both of you for your support.
I know how important having a therapist is. This last year of college I actually saw two spaced out over the week, and I was the most stable I'd been in a long time with that arrangement.
I honestly wish more people lived in the city where I am now. I've posted a couple times about this, but I guess people just aren't from around here. It would be helpful to get others experiences about some of these local places that offer low cost mental health, even if it was done through PM and not publicly to respect people's privacy.
But like I said, you can't help where people live! (smile) And everyone here is so supportive, it's just so cool to know that you guys are there, and we can write each other from totally different places in the world.
I have been going to a free depression/ bipolar support group for the last couple weeks, at that center that I mentioned is one of the places with the low cost therapy. And that's ok. So hard because it's a drop in group and people come and go. Like there were a bunch of people I hadn't met my first week who came this past week, and then some people I met my first time weren't there last week. It just threw me off, and kind of made me not want to go back. Though I guess the center is fairly close to where I live, it took an hour to get home on paratransit (transportation for the disabled) because we had to pick someone up and then drop them off. I was so tired by the time I got home, and thought that I don't want to go next week. Though I know I probably should.
