Wild Coyote, I hope you have heard back from your psychiatrist, or will very soon.
I really need to do some self-care today. I've been OK about the very basics, mostly because of vacation and family gatherings, but some have been grossly neglected. When I went to my uncle's funeral service I was wearing a nice black dress. My sister told me that I had tons of dandruff showing. She was right. Umm, need to wash my hair already. The problem with my hair is that I am able to often make it look presentable even without proper care. But obviously, something gives. I don't usually wear black tops.

Thanks so much!
My pdoc is not seeing people for appointments this week. She is in town. I have left a message as to what I am adjusting and how much. If she feels this is the wrong thing to do, then she can call me and let me know; otherwise, I have already started making the adjustment. I generally don't wait around too long for a response. 9 times out of 10, I have done exactly what she would have done. (I really like her and I feel she is way above average in the med department. She is also a very supportive therapist. At the same time, she does not always check her messages each day/night. I often feel I must make a change before I hear from her. She knows I will often do this.)
I wore a black top last week. I was shocked to see the dandruff when I walked into an appointment.

I use special shampoo due to psoriasis. I had run out and was using a substitute. No can do.
I hope you have a good week, Bird Dancer. I imagine you are still feeling quite a bit of pain while grieving the loss of your companion.
Thanks again for your support and your compassion.
