Would the outpatient program be ED specific? I've done outpatient mental health programs and have found them helpful, fwiw.
I'm sorry your therapy feels like a stressor rather than helpful.

Thanks, CCB <3
The program she recommended was not for ED, she said i would be doing intense work on boundaries?
I just...i went to inpatient when i was 17 and it was hugely disruptive and not terribly beneficial. Times have changed since 1987, and outpatient would not have quite that same level of disruption, but it would have some.
Also there is the other whole project of me trying to change jobs. That is also a strong recommendation bc I get re-traumatized every month just by attending Board Meeting.
I do have a month's worth of sick days that i could spend on outpatient, but if i don't use them i will get them back in cash if i leave. That extra cash is what is going to make it possible for me to survive the massive pay cut that is looking pretty inevitable.
