So for the past 6 months my therapist/psychiatrist has been splitting her time between two offices, the regular outpatient office I see her at and a low income federally funded clinic. We received letters that as of June she will be leaving the private office and only working in the clinic.

I work with a similar patient population. 80% of my patients are Medicaid. I could refer any one of them now and they would be able to see her. Now there might be a wait, but they can see her. BUT I CAN'T. I don't have the right insurance (that I pay every dime for because for some reason a ***** medical practitioner can't even get decent medical benefits coverage. They don't accept private payments which I'd be willing to do! And a large reason I SEE a psychiatrist is because my mental health has suffered from the pressures of the occupation.

As I mentioned over on the bipolar section; my husband and I suspect I might be having hypomanias. I was going to discuss this with her tomoarrow. I don't really want to now. What's the point. I'm not interested in seeing another psychiatrist right now. actually what I really want to do is mention it in passing at the end of the session, after I am done having to sit and listen to her canned speech about transfer of care and how she enjoyed working with me, yada yada.

At the end of session I'd like to just drop it in her lap, my self assessment, the detailed letter where I tried to concisely explain my concerns. Oh by the way at the end of the session and walk out

I'm tired of being strong. I'm tired of being just well enough to go in to work only to be met with patients who forget that I am a human too. I have limits to my strength and abilities too. But hell I'm too "well" to do anything but trudge along as I am.
