Please make yourself at home here.

Yes, you are correct. Where we were living before was extremely isolating on it's own. So, I'm at least in a better country/city for both having easy access to things outside of the home, as well as cheaper healthcare.
I haven't really had much time to look for local care, as I have been here for less than 2 months, and most of the energy I do have has gone into trying to get settled here. A friend gave me a phone number for a doctor (not a therapist or psych) who lives right in my neighborhood who can hopefully help me get my meds re-filled when needed, as well as possibly provide references for therapists and/or psychiatrists. I just really have a hard time with phone calls (a big cause of anxiety for me), so I have been putting off calling her
