Been a mixed bag this week. I got the bill for my two hospital visits, including one inpatient stay. Nearly $15000. I have no idea how I'm going to pay that. I'll chat with the hospitals tomorrow and see if I can't get some kind of financial assistance. They better, considering how poor I am and how little they have me working at my job.
Finding a new therapist has been equally "fun." I went to the clinic in my neck of the woods and found out they're not going to be able to see me until March. It's a little better for the psychiatrist, but I still have to wait until the end of the month. Thank goodness my old therapist is still willing to meet with my over Skype in the meanwhile.
On the plus side, celebrated a birthday on Thursday, a milestone one. I said several very bad words when I realized I was 30, but then I had some Indian food and all was well. I also went to the bookstore and saw a movie. All in all, a success!

Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
