Many thanks to all of you on a lot of levels. I'm not very saavy at being social a great deal of the time, but I have been lurking on the forms here every day to remind me that there are folks here who either understand and/or are willing to try to understand. As you can imagine, this is not something I am accustomed to and it may take a bit for me to adjust.
I do bring a small update regarding my medication situation, yet I suppose any progress is a good thing. On the 24th of this month, I am scheduled to be evaluated by one of the county social workers. Once it has been determined that I am in need of government assistance for care due to financial and situational hardship, I will then be referred to one of the county-appointed psychiatrists. Hopefully, somewhere at the end of this paper trail is the prescription for my medications.
