Thanks, Oakleaf. I hadn't even considered seeing a therapist. I talked to my family doctor - MD - the one who'd helped me get off the antidepressants before. (A different doctor put me on them, but she got married and moved and this new doctor took over her practice here.) New doctor is a cyclist and runner, too, and loves that I've had so much good come from the triathlon training. She fully supports my wanting to stay off meds, as long as the training is doing the job.
I'll look into a therapist.
I did talk to a lawyer right after the accident. He said that with that little bit of damage ($400), it wouldn't be worth the time and effort to pursue. For him, at least. I wonder if he'd change his mind with $1,000+ in damage, but do I want to work with him now, when the damage to me wasn't enough to interest him?
