Well I had my intake/intro/whatever you want to call it with the center I am switching to today...

It was a total of 2.5 hours or so, with most of the time being spent talking about -everything- even though I feel pretty terrible right now. They even saw my full diagnosis and such from my old psychiatrist that I brought along. It got to the point where I was talking directly to one of the psychiatrists, and she said "Oh, well don't expect anything within the month, and even then, we still need to find out if you have BP or not before we can treat"

Excuse me?

You want to see if I actually have BP2? Even though I have been receiving treatment that has been working for awhile now....you won't begin to treat me until you figure it out again?

I am at a point right now where I can't go without any sort of care for upwards of a month, and they won't even treat me until they figure things out?

I have my last meeting with my old psychiatrist tomorrow and I am hoping he can fix things....it's a slap in the face to my old Pdoc, and just enrages me that they are making me start from square one. I was almost in tears when she said that I had to go through everything again, she was even hinting at getting me off of the medicine that has been keeping me relatively okay for the past few months.
