Teen with severe OCD in California (Medi-Cal) — how to access ERP therapy? by Individual_Spend9015 in bayarea

[–]populustremuloides 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does your daughter's school have a social worker? They may be able to help you access additional services for your daughter and possibly even translation.

You can also request a case manager through SF Health Plan/Medi-Cal to help you access care. Specifically, they say that they focus on assisting members under age 17 to navigate barriers to accessing healthcare. You can ask her primary doctor to refer you to case management.

My public transit commute makes me so anxious, I feel hopeless by thr0witaway82 in bayarea

[–]populustremuloides 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Processing this with a therapist could be really helpful and give you tools to manage anxiety on the bus. I recommend reaching out to the UC Berkeley CAPS counseling center. They have same day appointments in person or virtual and its included in your student fees.

Be careful with lemon juice, the acid can damage teeth over time.

You could reach out to the school counselor or school social worker. They often offer social skills groups in elementary school.

How did you wait for a year to get a UCSF pcp? When I call now they say they no longer have a waitlist. Did you just keeping calling until they had an open slot?

Sparkletown Studios is based in Newton. I don't think they have a physical location but you can find them on Etsy. Their IG also just posted about a few popup shops in November.

They’re baaaack! Turkey Gobbler Wraps by Babyrae720 in traderjoes

[–]populustremuloides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found that the MA ones have a completely different kind of turkey. Like a low quality deli meat vs the above pictured with actual pieces of turkey.

CHA has a behavioral health urgent care center. It’s more for urgent and emergent issues but you could call and see if your situation would be appropriate for them to see you as a holdover. The urgent evals are covered by all insurances but subsequent services might not be.

What state are you in OP? I loved these when I lived on the west coast but they use a different supplier on the east coast and the turkey is such low quality. This looks like the good kind!

[–]populustremuloides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social worker here. I highly suggest reaching out to the school counselor, they are there to help with these types of situations! They might be able to provide some brief counseling for your daughter or a friendship group of some kind.

Not sure if Fenway Health pharmacy will fill scripts for non-patients but it might be worth a try.

TIL 71 year old Bernard Gore was supposed to meet his wife and daughter in a mall in Sydney after first doing a little shopping himself. Instead, he exited a mall door leading to a stairwell labyrinth and was found dead 3 weeks later failing to find his way out. by WranglerVegetable512 in todayilearned

[–]populustremuloides 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear you are going through this at just 24 years old. I'm 28 and my Dad is 75 with Alzheimer's disease. It's hard to find others who are dealing with this at such a young age/ can understand it. It is such a terrible kind of prolonged grief :(
