My therapist also moved out of town. My GP had bipolar written on my charts, so I mentioned that it was changed to schizoaffective. Now it's listed as schizoaffective, bipolar type, and I didn't correct it. It's supposed to be unspecified type. I only know this because I looked up the diagnosis code on my papers. I had to ask my Pdoc. He never told me. If I ever went back to that clinic I could just tell them I had whatever I wanted and they'd probably put it down. I'm feeling like it doesn't even matter anymore what the label is. I'd like to just erase the whole thing. But I also feel like I have a lack of a safety net now and I worry about the future. The system is a mess.

That's a scary lot of changes. I hope it won't impact you badly. Maybe you're more free to look for other pdocs now?
