Yikes. There is no excuse for professionals making comments like that.
Mental healthcare is awful here. The only time psychiatry will pay attention to you is if you are psychotic or bipolar (if you present yourself in Emergency). They seem to think these are real illnesses that deserve attention. The psych ER is so useless that I refuse to use it or any other crisis service, even my psychiatrist's after hours number.
