You'd think in a city this size better mental health care would be a given but it sucks. Please hang in there and I hope something shakes loose for you soon.  |
Hi, yeah, I didn't have much problem seeing a therapist but she never sent me to see a doctor about medication. They have to refer you. I made an apt on my own using my HIP insurance but like I said the apt was for 2 1/2 months after I made it.
I think part of the problem is I'm pretty good at appearing "normal" so maybe my therapist didn't understand just how bad my anxiety and depression are. Like I said I've had this problem for years and I've just dealt with it the best I could...which looking back isn't very well.
But now it's just taken over my life and I just can't see any light at the end of the tunnel.
