Hello Going ~ Well the new psychiatrist kanked out. They wanted the 20% of their rate not the medicare rate at time of service going forward, so I left the appointment. I came home and called Medicare about this and since I have what is called "cross-over", providers who accept medicare are not permitted to do this. At the very least, they may be allowed to ask for 20% of the Medicare rate, not their rates.
So, spent the rest of the afternoon and finally found a teaching hospital that, after begging them and letting them know I have 15 days left of a controlled substance, they scheduled me before I loose the rest of my medication, otherwise their first was December

. That was a tense afternoon and of course, now coming down with a migraine. This is much further away but after calling 24 psych docs on the Medicare website and finding no one, I thought I was doomed. .Of course, there is your suggestion to go back to my primary but she made it clear to me she would only give me one months supply of Klonopin.
I did not know that the author has written more books, will check that out at the library. Thanks for the heads-up.
Wow, you mean a close friend of 37 years has been gaslighting you? If you want to, start a new thread on this and we can talk about it there. I'm really sorry to hear this !!!

I understand the depth of betrayal you must be feeling.
Yes, my new T is practicing grounding with me, I had to teach her, lol. Oh well, it's a work in progress.
Take good care,
Birdie

I find that if I apply his knowledge even to other areas of my life, I understand things better. Many times I refused to believe something because it was an unbearable thought. I didn't want to believe that a so-called friend of mine for 37 years had been gaslighting me. But, I suspected it within that last 2 years. Have you read his other books? I am waiting for them to come to the library, so I can read them without having to buy them.
She sounds like a very, very skilled therapist. I hope she will let you use your grounding techniques more.
That is awesome that you got a new psychiatrist! That happened so fast! Yes, I will keep my fingers crossed for you that he will be great too. Good luck with the new psychiatrist! Please let me know how it goes.
Thank you for following up. I really appreciate it.
