So at the behest of my inpatient doctor I am starting IOP tomorrow. I am of course anxious and doubting that it's the right thing to do.

i have to go at night, but now i remembered that i have team training for my summer job (day camp) at least a few of those nights that i'm supposed to be at IOP. the camp owner is not exactly an understanding guy when it comes to cutting out of work, including unpaid training.

however i feel that i have to do what's best for me too, and what's best might be to go to this IOP for a little while. But part of me is like why bother, why not just go back to my monthly therapy and pdoc appointments and just try an IRL support group like DBSA?

I guess i'm going to try it for a week and see how it goes. I hope if I sign out my insurance won't refuse to pay. Guess i should find that out beforehand.

sorry if this sounds a little scattered, my brain is a little scattered tonight

I have never gone to IOP , but then again the closest one is probably 100 miles away , so it is never an option.

I have talked to many people that have done it and everyone said it helped them so much.

Make a decision that is going to be the best for you.
