I had an appointment about 3 weeks ago. (2 weeks ago this past Monday which is when we called. I’m not doing well but the appointment was fine. She wanted me (my mom) call back in 2 weeks to see how the abilify was working. And then depending she would either up the dosage on the phone or have me back that/this week.

We called and my mom explained to the receptionist. She said she would just make an appointment for us in 2 more weeks. I’m kind of upset about it. I’m tired of the abilify. It’s not working and it’s causing me to not sleep ever at all.

I had saved the last of my ssi money for the 90$ prescription but now I have until next month. But every day I’m worried she’s going to call back and say she’s increasing the med so I’m afraid to spend the money.

I get a decent amount but I have so much in hospital bills, doctor bills, meds, rent, and everything. I wanted to buy new pants if I don’t have to buy pills again this month. I literally have 2 pairs of pants and that’s it. Mostly because I rarely leave the house. Anyways

I’m just really struggling and frustrated and I want to vent more but I have no one to listen to me

Does your office have a nurses line or other way to get through to the Dr.? I've found receptionists are only good at making appointments.

It's a very small office with only her and the receptionist so I don't know. I'm also really new and have only been there twice so far.

It's a matter of priorities. Pants or pills.

Try Rue 21 I get jeans for $7 a pair. I would call again and ask for the pdoc to call you back don't even say why just say you really need pdoc to call you back.

You’ve every right to come here to complain, rant, scream, &etc.

Whatever lessens the pain. Whatever makes sense.

Some of the best posts here are complaints and rants.

If you’re eligible for SSI, doesn’t that mean that you’re eligible for Medicaid?
