She did, however, make an appointment to see a psychiatric nurse practitioner.  Karen told the nurse that she was making some changes in her life.  Karen said that she and a girlfriend were joining a gym program for workouts and a social group for young men and women.  Karen stated that she realizes that her former boyfriend had not been committed to her, and she anticipates meeting and dating other young men from the adult social group.  Karen also said that she thinks that the gym exercise will be beneficial to her mentally and physically.
