The path is never straight, but we still have to put one foot in front of the other.

Well, less success today.
I didn't sleep well, so early rising in the morning didn't happen. That, for starters, always succeeds to make me feel sad.

Then I went to Dr. Bella, my psychiatrist, and she had nothing promising to say. When I asked her about the new therapist I am supposed to work with, her answers were: , "I hope she'll call by Sunday", "maybe by next week already", "if you don't hear from her by.... call me again", etc.
I lost it. I spoke angrily and said back "maybe??", "you hope"?

I am frustrated with the public mental health care. Medical health care is actually good, getting appointments on an urgent basis. But this is falling short of meeting the needs of the patient. I am stuck with it, though. If I tried to get someone on a private level, it'll also take weeks to find someone appropriate, and then there is the issue of 500NIS ($150.00 US) an hour, every week, not covered by any health plan. I have to wait patiently until this Dr. Lili (name of [English speaking] therapist I am supposed to work with) gets in touch with me.

I have to keep trying to have simple days, go for good walks, putting one foot in front of the other.
