First off let me thank the others who replied to my post called Things are not good and are depressing

I am still depressed and just got through another hospital thank god it was not for MH issues this time. I had a kidney stone and a very bad kidney infection. What has me depressed now is what they found on a chest xray. there is a black stop in my lung. This scares me b\c I did have cancer in my had and my chest xray was fine in March. Due to my last 302 I am now set up with what they refer to as MAST team. It is a very intense progam. I am nervous and upset that others are making choices for me. The worst one is yet another therapist that 302 dumps me. SHe said she will be there to help with the transition. Just when I was starting to trust her. I feel lost and now having a 2nd therapist say that I need more help than they can offer makes me feel sub human(hope that makes sense) . It is all too much for me especially since I m a loner and keep to myself. I better go I told myself I wwould keep this short.

(((((Tmac))))) I'm so sorry you are having such a rough time of it - the kidney stone and infection, problems with pdocs, Ts, programs, meds - and now the spot on your lung. That's an awful lot to handle, especially when you feel that you are essentially being left out of the decision-making process. Try to get one of the doctors or MH professionals to just stop and listen to your concerns and how you feel about everyone making decisions for you without your participation - let them know that they need to let you know that you are being HEARD! You are not a case, or a condition, or an illness - you are a person. Please keep posting and letting us know how things are progressing.

Oh Tmac, hang in there! Keep looking for a therapist. There will be someone you connect with well and will be able to help you! I can speak to the light at the end of the tunnel. Even though there are good days and bad, the other side of depression is bright and good when you get there. It is worth fighting for! YOU are worth fighting for!
