I'm off to see my new pdoc. I'm a bit nervous. I don't know how she's going to react to many things: my cutting, transgenderism, DID, and bulimia. I hope it all goes well. I just wish I knew how she was going to react.

I like my new psychiatrist. The visit went very well. She confirmed my thoughts on medication, that they don't really help that much with DID. She tested me for side effects to my Risperdal, which I hadn't been tested for before. I turned out fine. She found me a therapist at the same clinic, I have an appointment in a week and a half. She didn't get hung up on our transgenderedness, which is one of the things I was most worried about happening. My initial feeling is that our new pdoc will be someone we will be able to trust and someone who will be able to help us.

I just got back from coffee with artemii at the Diesel. She's the first person that I've met in person that I met first on LiveJournal. Coffee was fun, and I've been needing to meet new and interesting people in Boston. I hope we get together for coffee again sometime soon.

Lake got a job! It's just a temp job, but maybe this will signal the end of our financial problems.

We're going to take a trip to scope the place out tonight. While we're out we're going to stop by Walgreens and pick up refills for some of my meds.

The way to get to Lake's job is stressful and convoluted. I'm going to have to go with Lake tomorrow morning to navigate for her. I'm going to have to take a couple busses and the T to get back home. Oh, fun morning, and I don't even get paid.

Lake said that she wants to wake up at 4. That gave me an idea. I'll wake her up with biscuits and gravy and we'll take a practice run early before traffic. That way I don't have to take the busses and the T back, and at the same time Lake gets to practice coming home. Everyone is happy, it all works out.
