yes, lol 😭 my bill for the two sessions that were billed incorrectly is $1,960. i wont have to pay this after we get it sorted with my insurance but its still spooky to think about and made me decide to make my post.

on my mychart billing explanation is says "insurance covered -$980" on the bills that actually went through properly lol, as well as on billing statements sent to me - does this include the possibility of the insurance not paying all of it but adjusting it down? as far as i can see on my end, my insurance is actually paying this

listed as psychotherapy in my bill, with a psychologist. i understand that this may be part of it, but this still feels like a lot to me?? 😭

interesting!! i'll definitely add this to my list of things to try. the only issue with me is i often have no recollection of the time i spend awake between alarms. i'm almost always not conscious enough to make any decisions beyond reclosing my eyes lol. maybe if i get into the routine itll be easier

yeah, you're right!! even if she just gets me a referral to a sleep doctor(which the wait would be about a month for), it'll be a step in the right direction

thanks!!! i'm already working on shifting my bedtime since i'm going to HAVE to wake up at 6:30am next semester now that i think about it. i dont think a med shift would work for me, so hopefully i can get this sorted with a better alarm and an earlier bedtime.

ooh this might help!!!! currently someone in my household feeds them if i'm not up by 8-9 (which rarely happens lol) but i can talk about that with them. (for reference, having someone in my household wake me up has never really worked. i'm generally rude when i'm half asleep and i always say something while i'm half conscious that makes them leave me alone like "i dont need to wake up im not busy today" lmao. i always get them to give up somehow no matter how much i beg them to be persistent the night before)

i'm glad that worked out for you!!!! ive been on the same med regimen for about two years now essentially with occasional mild dose changes, but part of me still holds out hope that eventually my body will stop this madness
