[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 129927, member: 1991"] I know she needs to see the therapist, but it's not going to happen any time soon unfortunately. I'm going to try to push her to give up at least part of one of her days at home and make a special trip in (I'll drive her) which she can then follow with a window-shopping session and then bring BF2 home from work. Maybe I can get her to combine it with house-hunting - she says he is desperate to get their own place but neither of them seems to have the time to go organise finance, look at houses etc. When the college assignments start coming in, she's going to be even more stressed - Catch 22. The worse she is, the more she says she can't spare the mental energy or time for therapist. I think I'll try and organise a couple of house inspections for her, and link it in with a new appointment with therapist. It also means organising a lot of paperwork from the GP to authorise the therapist, plus the waiting time for appointments etc. A real headache, but her obsessions and other issues are getting in her way right now, log-jamming everything. I COULD try and get BF2 on side, but he lacks the subtlety needed for this. Blimey, she's a headache right now! But I know this is going to get worse fast, if we can't find ays around. If only she could de-stress enough to see reason enough. She makes times to see the gastroenterologist, but that doesn't stir hr up emotionally like the therapist does. Marg [/QUOTE]
