I don't mind babbling here--but I am so afraid of babbling on the phone and sounding like an IDIOT that I get myself all worked up and end up doing exactly that. My therapist offered to call my insurance company if they won't cooperate with me; but I *hate* the thought of being so helpless I have to impose on someone else to make phone calls for me.
(And, of course, I'd have to call them myself first to see if they were cooperative--hah.)I've only seen my primary care physician once (only lived here 18 mos) so I'm not comfortable calling and asking for a prescription. Thus I'm medication-less by default since I'm going out of town tomorrow for a week.
