I think I'm allowed to be upset with her. You have no idea what I went through being undiagnosed. I nearly died. I could have died.
I can't be upset at the professionals involved. I still have to put up with them, and I have a part that absolutely HATES them and if I give him any fuel at all, it's over, I'll loose them. I'll loose med management, I'll loose my rides to therapy. I'll loose everything.

I'm truly sorry and apologize that I caused you to feel upset, Lydia. That was not my intention. I simply was pointing out that I have a strong urge NOT to dump on anyone that has mental health issues. I feel that the general public and mental health personnel do that more than we can ever imagine doing. I personally feel that individuals who need mental health, and there are many of us, need to stick together and support each other. I'm NOT saying that it makes it okay for you to have been denied services or care because of this individual. I just wanted to say that your denial of service was really NOT because of her issues, it was because the PROFESSIONALS who where assigned to give you and her care were not on up to date with what was needed professionally. I'm saying that we all need to stick togehter and NOT deny, hurt or degrade our fellow mental health consumers!
