I've been avoiding making a third appointment with my therapist for quite some time. Basically, he highly recommended that I find a GP and a psychiatrist here, and I was too freaked out to make those two calls, so I just didn't schedule another appointment with him either. Today I finally got off my ass and emailed him to explain the situation. I'm hoping we can start working on my social anxiety as well as depression, and move forward from there. He hasn't replied yet, but fingers crossed that I can get an appointment relatively soon. I also still have the book I borrowed from him, so, y'know, he has incentive to respond :D

I started talking to my recent ex again after about 2 weeks of no contact. I think we can seriously transition into friendship in a way that seems healthy for both of us, which is cool, because we both still really care about each other and enjoy spending time together. It's only been a day or two, so we're still figuring it out and figuring out if this is even gonna work, but I hope it does. I could use another close friend.

Can't wait to go home for Christmas! Less than a month and I'll be back in Texas. Fuck, I'm really excited, guys. And all my friends are gonna be there at the same time as me, most of them with a bunch of free time. It'll be a cool two weeks.
