I talked to her pDoc today he is very sympathetic. He is going to make some phone calls and try to find out how he can help with a CBT. There are some big major problems going on at the mental health clinic that she goes to through our hospital. Very understaffed. Doctors and therapists are quitting. He is looking into another place where she may be able to get what she needs he also said there is a place here in upstate New York but its in Syracuse!
There is no way that I can drive her one and a half to 2 hours each way for an hour long appointment every week.
Another subject he brought up was Clozaril? He is thinking of putting her on it even though he has tried to avoid it in the past.
