Peanut,
I think that is an interesting statement, not knowing if you want to go back. I wonder if that is a common thing. We spend a large amount of time and energy dealing with these problems and in doing so we learn so much about ourselves. It makes me wonder how many people who go through this come to the conclussion that the new person they have found in themselves doesn't really want to go back to the old life.

Thank You Peanut,

Well, If it would only costs me 5 Cents-like Lucy used to charge Charlie Brown for a coco consultation, I would pay right away for not having to wait that long...

I can't neither assume the fare of a private psychologist nor a private psychiatrist. And it's important that I have a minimum follow-up on my medication that needs to be modulated a few times during the year (I take the anti-depressant Effexor, 225 Mg. daily).

Sometimes I feel like I would have to become a psychotic to have some attention. I know there are cases that are more urgent than mine, but it's nor normal having to wait a minimum of 6 months, and more in my case as of now.

Take care,

Starbuck

I wonder where it will go from here... But I'll try nonetheless.
