Anyway, the therapist I phoned earlier called back and can get me in this Friday. I am so disorganized, I can't even find my CPS caseworker's number, not even in my phone calls because things roll over to voicemail if I re-dial the recent past calls. But anyway, the case worker told me she would be in meetings or training or something most of today and to leave a voicemail. Hopefully, I left it with her as the voicemail just re-iterated the number dialed. I had a 2nd number on the page for the place doing the assessment and got the same thing. Anyway, hopefully one of these is my caserworker for CPS. H does have his card from the caseworker; I lost mine already. This is how I have been for quite a while with losing papers and such. The assessment place did have the caseworker's
number, so if I did dial the wrong number, they will give me my caseworker's phone number again. Yes, I am literally that bad. I write down phone numbers and don't jot down names beside them, and then I have no idea who the number is for later. Otherwise, I will wait until H comes home from work today and write down the number from his card.
I think this therapist may have just set up shop, or maybe not as she only appeared on the Aetna search page yesterday. But if you search things different
terms, like therapist, counselor, counseling, you get different results on the Aetna site. Anyway, the good news about her just appearing there is that she is super close to my house, pretty much behind my daughter's school playground, and it takes 5 minutes to drive my daughter to school.
Fingers crossed she will take me on. She said she likes to use CBT, which is good as apparently DBT (which I only learned of from this site) and CBT tend to be the therapies of choice in treating eating disorders. But I just mentioned
bipolar & severe stress & panic disorder to her on the phone. And yes, she does take my insurance.

—so happy for you! Biggest problem solved. Now slow down, take your daughter someplace, even for a walk after school and those numbers, cards will be much easier to find. Nobody ate them LOL. Onward and upward, definitely upward!
