So, a few changes are happening in my life right now! Some of the major ones are exciting to me, and possibly disappointing to some (if not many/most) of my friends and family, while other major ones are terrifying to me. I'll talk about them in the order of exciting-terrifying.
EXCITING!
- I am moving out of my mother's house within the next couple of months (hopefully I'll be moved out within 6 weeks). Currently everything rests on me getting health and dental insurance. I'm applying for it shortly, and will move once I have confirmation that I have received the insurance.
- I am moving in with my boyfriend, Tene. This is where people will probably be disappointed in me (heaven knows my parents are). I understand concerns, but I'm happy with my decision, and I haven't made this decision lightly.
IN THE MIDDLE!
- Once I have insurance set up and everything, I'm likely going to start looking for a new psychiatrist. Although I feel that I have conclusively proved that I do not have bipolar (I've been off of medication for it for months with no adverse effects in the manic range), I feel that I should look back in to being placed on medication for depression. It sucks, I hates it, but hopefully I can learn to manage this somehow - be it with, or without, medication.
TERRIFYING!
- Before I moved out I wanted to have a clean bill of health (or have a moderate idea of anything that could potentially be a problem). As a result I went to my regular doctor and dentist, and in both cases was sent to specialists.
- First was the plastic-surgeon who deals specifically with the eye region. I was sent to him by my regular doctor after these little bumps formed by my eye, and didn't go away. The eye-bumps hurt a little, especially if I mess with them (imagine that!), and while they aren't obscuring my vision or anything, are a little annoying. The eye-doctor looked at them, measured them, and prodded them only to come to the conclusion "I don't know what these are! But they don't seem to be dangerous!" He sent me home without doing much, and told me to go back in 6 months (or so) if they don't go away or get worse.
- Second was the dentist who deals specifically with the gums. I was sent to him by my regular dentist (who is a pediatric dentist. I like that I watch Rattatouie when I see my dentist ... ) after he noticed some recession of my gum line. The gum-dentist looked at my gums, listed out some numbers that I don't understand, and then told me that he had to do surgery. This will be done in the next few weeks and I'm scared for it.
Well ... that's the sum of my life at this point. I hope everything goes well, and I'll try to keep ya'll updated!
