I'm sorry that your therapist wasn't really helpful. In what way wasn't he able to help you? If this isn't an area where he has some experience, it may be helpful to find someone else. I do think you need to get some rest though. If you have health insurance, I suggest calling and getting an appointment with a psychiatrist (sp?) to help with any meds you need but, most of all, to help you get emotional help. There are many, many support groups available to you. You can call your county mental health office for referrals too. I'm also really glad you talked to your boyfriend. I imagine he was pretty shocked, but was he helpful too? Are you making sure you have the support you need to deal with all of this? It may get a little bit worse before it gets better, BUT IT WILL GET BETTER! I am really, really proud of you for getting help for yourself and I will be here with you if you need any help. I'm sending you all the love and support and healing thoughts that I can. --Lyssa
