This is weird. I could actually go anywhere I want right now, and I live in New York City, so there are many interesting places I could visit. I don’t think I’ll go anywhere, though. I think I’ve had a full enough day with moving in and going out for General Tso’s chicken. I think I’ll stay in and try to figure out what to do with myself. It is the shortest day of the year, and it’s going to be fully dark, like, any minute.
Tomorrow, I am going to meet with a caseworker from my insurance company who will just check up on me, maybe weekly, and make sure I’m okay. It sounds weird, but personally, I want to have a whole team of helpers to keep me on the right path now that I live in the real world.
On Tuesday, I’ll go back to the program I just graduated from and do my intake for outpatient services, so that I can go back there a few times a week and participate in group therapy with people I know from the program. I just want to maintain a connection with all of the work I’ve done there and keep improving. I messaged my counselor, Sereen, to let her know I was all settled in, but the big change hasn’t really settled in, so I’m doing the same things I did in room 604 at the program, just in my own room in my own place.
So, I think I’ve earned a relaxing night for myself on this winter solstice.
