Funny how if you don't tell them you're taking an anti-psychotic or mood stabilizers, and you don't write down that you've been dx'ed with a mental illness, they believe you when you tell them about your aches and pains.
They actually listen and dx you! 
Mention Abilify or Lithium and BAM! They suddenly look at you with sad eyes and nod their heads as if that explains everything.
They don't hear you anymore. Ha! Story of my life. |
So very true and yet if and when it does come out they say why didnt you tell us.
Think question should be why dont they tell us regardless of our diagnosis---
yes we may have a menatl health problem but does that mean that we can not get any physical problems and will always be physically well
l fear not
so l think this is such a good way to go to at least get them to listen
thanks mandyxx
