Nope, won't get paid, they plan to take me out to either lunch or dinner, either which I keep trying to encourage them not to do. I haven't been to a restaurant in 14 years due to my Agoraphobia, yikes, don't know how I am going to get out of this one. My former psych doc is retiring in March 2020, so I have been trying to transition to a new psych doc, otherwise I would do the same as you, pay him thru cash. He told me in January and in March when I joined my new Medicare Advantage plan, there was a large pool of psych docs to choose from, only to find out that all of them opted out of the plan and they are still all online as participating providers. I complained about this to Medicare, euch was their comment, they could care less. So, I am now complaining to my Federal Congressman. Thank you for the prayers for my kitty, appreciate that !! Working on my last list of what to do tomorrow before my pick up time and what I need to finish up with today. Trying to stay calm now. Took an extra Klonopin to help and listening to calming music, but terrified about tomorrow. Blue |

you have so much pressure on you. I wonder if you feel better after the bankruptcy is over. Your poor kitty cat. I get so distressed when one of mine is sick. Vets are so expensive. Rats that they won't give you money rather than taking you out. Wonder if you can lie and say you have digestive issues so only eat at home. Maybe then they would give you money. Maybe you can ask them if they know anybody who needs a kitty cat sitter and will pay. Probably will backfire. Have you googled for psychiatrists who take medicare in your area. I am sure you probably have
Best of fortune! fondly bobby |

Making my breakfast for tomorrow morning. Not a morning person at all, so waking up at 6AM is going to be very difficult and a shock to my nervous system. I'm all ready except for that and making a sandwich to take with me. I'll simply microwave what I made tonight. I think the moment I put my foot on those metal stairs to climb up into the pararansit, pure panic and terror will set in. I have selected calm music and have my ear buds for the trip. One last issue is that I usually have to use the bathroom every 15 minutes once I am this stressed and they won't stop. So, will be wearing those "pads". I hate to arrive all smelly, you know... that urine smell............ soo gross !! Officially all done with cat sitting, so turned off my phone and will not answer the front door, also closed all my blinds. I want it to appear no one is here now, don't need anything or anyone to challenge my mood between now and when I get on the bus. Although my neighbor who is refusing to take me knows when my court time is and what day, so hoping she doesn't drink tonight and take out her rage on me. I might just say I will go for dessert instead of a full fledged meal with the cat ladies. That way we can get in quick. She won't take no for an answer, not sure why. I don't want to be rude to her as this is a social thing for her, so will take a little extra Klonopin and hope for the best. Tomorrow will be my trial run, lol. If I can get thru tomorrow, I may be able to get thru dessert out in a restaurant. Trying to find a little humor here. I have been searching for psych docs in my area since March. Have extensive lists of all the doctors on my panel that are no longer in the plan. What are left are putting out scheduling for late Fall, early Winter. According to my insurance provider, they can do this. However, will keep looking. Also, my insurance company did admit that there are doctors on their panel that prefer not to be in either the book of providers or even online, in essence they are no where anyone can find them within my network. I became enraged once I heard this and will take this up with my Federal Congressman. Medicare Advantage Plans are not for Seniors, that's for sure and they seem to get away with everything with no accountability. Take care and maybe next time you hear from me, I'll be home recovering. Adios, my friend. Blue |

I hope things go smoother for you than you think. I hope they don't cause you anymore trouble. That is so inhumane about the doctors. I had a court case once and I kept on looking at the sign in God we trust. It helped me big time. I was up against 5 corporations because of my explosion. My lawyer was useless but the judge was wonderful and asked to speak to me to see what I wanted.In front of my lawyer I said he was useless lol.

Dear Blue,
I'm wishing you a good trip and that all goes well. Some klonopin makes sense. The ride back will be easier because you will have completed your task. That neighbor has something destructive going on in her head (especially about the weird recording business.) Keep yourself safe. Maybe at some point she will moderate herself. I'm sending you good vibes and well wishes for the trip. May you encounter good people and much kindness . M |

I'm sorry BlueMoon, I've been trying to catch up on everyone's posts. I'm not purposely leaving you out, I'm having a hard time reading yours because of how they were written. I will start out with your thread tomorrow morning

It took me three hours to go 40 miles, the driver got lost. Then he pulled over on a major highway where trucks were zooming by the paratransit. He walked around the side of the truck I was in, took a pea, then spent 12 minutes on a cell call. I called for help and reported him as abandoning the paratransit. I didn't go into too much detail, but I did take pictures. I was 30 minutes late but did make my court time My bk attorney had 5 of his clients all together at one time (oh well). Then there was an issue of my bank statements which he got chewed out for. She will take my case under advisement and in 60 days if everything is okay, then within 30 more days I can expect to see a discharge. The ride home was uneventful, but we had to pick up people and drop them off before finding my way home which took an extra hour. I was soo exhausted when I first got home. Before I left this morning, I saw my neighbors car in the parking lot, when I got home, it was still there. She never went to work, it was just an excuse and she lied to me. I'm guessing she didn't care if I saw her car out there. I was hoping she would leave me a good luck note, but nope, not that either. So, there is something seriously wrong with her and I have to believe she's drinking again. I want to take all of you for your graciousness and kindness sprinkled with support over the last three days !!! Tomorrow I visit with my new psych doc and see what he plans to do with me. It's soo much fun to be me. Blue |
