I know they have a lot of patients and they want a private life outside of their practice. But how can a complete stranger give me medical advice regarding my medications that someone ELSE prescribed?

Plus the psychiatrist really didn't give me any kind of options as far as someone else to call. I asked him.

It scares me.

So what do I do? Pay $75-$115 bucks a month extra to see my previous psych nurse out-of-network? Or just suck it up and see this guy in-network, and deal with having no one to contact?

What do you all do when you hit a low point on a weekend - and specifically when you have a medication question and you're not sure what you should do with your meds?
