That's very frustrating. Find someone else. It's unreasonable for you to have to wait a month to start treatment. A family doctor or even a walk-in place should be able to give you something to help. I even got a prescription once from an ER doc who said start taking this NOW. See if you can find a therapist at a community organization or a private therapist (if they are too pricey find one that will work on a sliding scale) or anyone who can see you now. Don't wait! Your health is too important.

If it gets to the point that you can't take it - just go to the nearest hospital. If you have a psychiatric hospital nearby they might be able to get you started with something without you having to be an inpatient. They often have good referral programs for many different situations. Ours handles situations from private clients to homeless folks. It may not seem like the best solution but it's better than nothing. Good luck.
