Well, today's the day. I'm discharging at 2:30pm. Recovery Ways is going to bring a van over and pick me up.
I'm really nervous, I don't know what to expect. But I'm hopeful and excited to move on.
I'm not sure if I will have computer access while I am there. Or phone access either. So this may be my last entry for a while.
Thank you sincerely to everyone who donated, I met my goal and then some. It is currently at $1620, my goal was $1500. I should definitely have enough now to cover the costs I need to, and hopefully the residential program will be covered by insurance and if not then I should be able to get a scholarship based on my current situation, so the most it'll cost me is $2,000-$3,000. Which I am happy about. Especially compared to the $15,000 it was going to cost me to go to New Roads. Lol.
I am grateful, nervous, excited and relieved. Hopefully the next month at Recovery Ways will be a good experience. Then after the residential program, they do a Partial Hospitalization Program/Day Treatmenr, that should be a 9-5 deal Monday through Friday. Then the month after that it'll be a step down to IOP for 10 hours a week, at which point I can start working part-time. And then back down to individual therapy once a week.
I'm confident in this plan, and I really hope it's a good experience.
