Talk about having to have patience when you don't have insurance or any kind of medical assistance it is a waiting game for sure! But I finally got called and got into the therapist with whom I like very much and was very pleased at the end of the session she asked me do you just want me to medicate you or do you want real help, I was taken back by this because no-one had ever asked me this, my reply was I wanted to be helped so I could be with my kids and my husband again and laugh and enjoy it like I use to. I was told it would be better to have on on one therapy due to anxiety with groups and crowds-I thought I 'm gonna pay big bucks for this-someone that cares this much and is willing to make sure I have all that I need to be ok again--surprise for me 3.00 is all I have to pay each visit!

They changed my meds also due to effexor raises your blood pressure-which I already have-she put me on cymbalta- because I also have alot of pain due to (MS episodes) and took me off the depakote 3xday and placed me on depakote ER once a day for extended relief. I have to say so far they seem to be working ok-but its only been a week-so we'll see. I have had several major blow ups in this week and no seizures which were being caused by stress-thank god-that is a weird feeling!

 

I am telling all of this to let people know that have no insurance that there is help out there for all! Tongue out

Take care and have a great week coming-my kids are going back to school so it will be relaxing one for me.

Bye for now
