Wow, this is terrible -it sounds like you fell through the cracks of the system or something? For the record, I think often in-patient psychiatrists don't do the follow up once you're discharged, they refer you to an outpatient pdoc at discharge. So it sounds like they referred you to the pdoc who you have an appt. with is July? So they discharged you in February and gave you an appointment at that time for July, or am I missing something here? This means you haven't seen a pdoc since you were discharged. That's just crazy, I'm sorry this has happened.

I would strongly recommend that you call the pdoc you already have an appointment with and ask for an earlier appointment, explaining that you haven't seen anyone since February -I think with that, they should be able to fit you in.

Sorry this is happening and good luck!
