Y'ALL NEED TO GO TO A SHRINK!!!

(((((HUGS)))))) to you honey. Call me anytime.
Awww sweetie, you made me smile. She does have an appointment at the end of the month. Her insurance stinks (doesn't all of ours?) and thats the earliest appt she could get. Personally I think she needed to tell them she's SEVERELY depressed and acting out... she'd have gotten one a week ago if she did. I know all of her behavior is based on depression. I've been there and understand what she's feeling. I know the feeling of "no matter what I do I'm wrong" and "everyone is out to get me" and "Nobody understands me!" etc. I KNOW what she's feeling. What I don't know is HOW nobody else but me saw it all along and nobody else but me said she needed help (I've said it since she was 12)

Now, it is exciting that she has an appointment in 2 weeks. I'm hoping they give her medicine AND weekly sessions. I'm hoping they point out I'm the one who has stood by her more than anyone else. I'm the one who offered a parental role to her when she needed it most. She might not like everything I had/have to say but its all with the intentions of keeping her safe from doing stupid things that would hurt herself.

PS: As for her hurting the cats. Thats not going to happen. She actually likes the cats and she knows hubby's reaction will be worse than mine. She knows those cats are his best friends and she knows by doing anything to harm even a whisker would be sheer suicide on her part.
