I... I don't know

I can't think. My brain is all jammed up. I really just. I don't know. I can't even answer a simple question.
Saw the Dr today, my boyfriend came along as well. He's put me on to a different psychologist who I will call on Monday. He was a little concerned that I wouldn't be comfortable with a male psychologist. It makes no difference to me though.
Another increase in the ol' medi-ma-cation, some talk of thinking about seeing a psychiatrist (I made my feelings on this point rather clear) and a bunch of blood tests to rule out any medical causes (the old iron, B12, thyroid etc etc etc). I also had a bit of a vent. Which made me feel a little silly after.
Speaking of silly, my jammed up brain has occasionally left me to my own devices, packing itself a little suitcase and leaving the country. On Wednesday I showed up at uni (after a 90min train trip) only to realise that I had no classes on. Today I showed up to work at the wrong store, to find my manager already there, so I waited for a bus and opened the correct store close to an hour late. (Why do they still let me work there??).
Goodbye, my brain. Please come home soon.

there is a song "there will be days like that"... so just hold your breath and keep working and turning up ... hopefully at the right store or on the right day...

glad boyfriend went with you to confirm talk with Dr...

good luck with the new psychologist... and a psychiatrist can be a useful health professional if she or he is the right one for you...

take care
