I've never seen their vehicles in my part of town, but yesterday there was one that went down the road with stickers and I thought "that car/those bumper stickers look familiar" and I saw it in the mental health center parking lot later, but they went a different/longer way (got there first because I had to get gas though). Today there was one with a vanity plate that I thought was cool and I stopped at the library before meds and they were there too. I kept my eye out because went on the road there was the same make/model as my pdoc's car but I couldn't quite see the color because of the sun and they went south past the exit. But this doesn't usually happen. Once I saw my case manager in a grocery store but that was in the population. I don't remember things too long so I don't know if those cars are the people I don't see/on other teams or if they are my team that just isn't my case manager or the one with the black car. Or if they switch like they switch names for anonymity.
Why are they doing this? Sometimes I can't wait at home to leave because it's boring if I'm ready early and maybe they want to see if I'm buying drugs? I want to... __________________ [Insert thought-provoking and comedic quote here] |

Could it just be paranoia?
It would be odd for mental case workers to be tracking anyone, don't they have pretty full caseloads? I know my pdoc is so busy there is no way he'd have time to track anyone. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

Yeah, but all it takes is "hey, have someone redirect their route to drive by ____ at 8:20am" I'm not even convinced it's one of my team's peeps, just people that work in the same building.
that's why they got pissed when I said I wanted to not die from depakote __________________ [Insert thought-provoking and comedic quote here] |

I agree with Blueberry. Sounds like paranoia. Don’t think they have time for this sort of thing to be honest with you.

I guess it's not statistically impossible that three vehicles just coincidentally happened to be near me near my house right at the edge of the catchment zone 20 miles from the building "met" me in the parking lot later. Guess a lot of the people that work there went in late this week AND reside in the 10 mile rural stretch of road that would make that their commute. I wouldn't drive 20-30 miles one way to work at an underfunded community mental health center personally, but I guess there are at least three people doing it.

I agree with Blueberrybook and Crazy Hitch. I think you're having some paranoia.

The collective doesn't have time for one or two people to drive by, but three individuals have time to do that commute daily just because that would mean I'm "paranoid" instead of "aware"?

Do you have actual license plate numbers that you KNOW match up with members on your care team? And depending on the make/model of the car, some models & makes are a whole lot more popular than others. And vehicles only come in so many certain standard colors...I know in my area, practically every 2nd or 3rd person owns a Ford F-150 truck, usually in white or black. Now, if I saw a Subaru following me in this area, it's be a little more suss as they tend to be a lot harder to find around here.
I'm sorry, I really do think it's paranoia. Mental health care workers do not drive around following patients unless you have multiple care workers who also happen to be stalkers. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

they also didn't call back when I called the team's crisis line after I said some threatening stuff (it was some impulsive bs) and tomorrow the med nurse told me to stay home but come back next week, so something's up. __________________ [Insert thought-provoking and comedic quote here] |
