i justt saw my current pdoc and hes not lowering the dosage of my injection. and he said my clothes are dirty so i have bad hygiene.

now i see the next pdoc tomorrow. im not enthusiastic about all this.

i feel like they are gonna freak out when if i cancel all my appts to my current pdoc. im supposed to see him next week again but i wont if this new one works out.

So here are the laws

Mental Health Professionals? Duty to Warn: 50 state table

Where I live and in a lot of states they are required by law, pdocs therpists and others to report if you are a danger to yourself or others they are forced to break confidentiality they have no choice in the matter at all. Apparently in Texas it is allowed but not mandatory so really the choice was hers---she probably did it because she wanted to make sure she saw you again...

That seems soon is it because they are working out the new AD?

idk. probably but i may cancel it

Yeah well if you like the new one better yeah I mean I would cancel it too.

i feel like if i just kept myself busy i would stay out of the hospital. isnt that possible - if u know what i mean?

if she asks why i dont want to release my information what do i say?

Here is my two cents. Take a shower and put on some fresh clean clothes. That way the new doctor can't say you have bad hygiene. Go in and talk to the new doctor and see how it goes. If you decide to go with the new doctor then you can just tell the old doctor you have switched doctors. The old doctor cannot talk to the new doctor unless you sign a form saying that you give permission. If the new doctor asks you why you don't want him seeing your files from the old doctor tell him it is because you disagree with the information. Tell the new doctor that you want to start over with a brand new assessment. Tell him that you want a doctor that will listen to you and understand your situation. It's worth a try I think. You never know until you try. I don't know how switching doctors would affect your disability though. If I were you I would check into that too. If your insurance will pay for you to see both doctors then I'd try it. Make sure the insurance will pay though because you don't want to end up with a big bill. I wouldn't stop your medication completely. I would ask the new doctor to help you find one that works for you better. You may have to suffer through trying several before you are able to find the right one with the right dosage that works and that gives you a good quality of life. I would be sure to tell the new doctor that while on injections your quality of life is bad because you have no energy to do anything. Hopefully he will listen to you. This is just my advice. My two cents. It is totally up to you to decide what would be the best direction to take. I wish you the very best as I always do.

Go. Be honest?
Maybe she has a different belief in MI and meds. It wont hurt and if she is not for you, then stay with your old one.
What have you got to lose by trying.
You will.still have a choice, right?
Ask her about what she would do differently for you.

Mine say that too. It makes things confusing, well for me anyway How is your new AP working out?

Yes it's up to you to keep out of trouble so they'll leave you alone. If you make noise and become a hassle, they'll make life even more difficult for you. I think taking meds is best for now

You told your T that you were suicidal and would act on it! She would have to be completely incompetent or uncaring not to have you admitted. Much as I hate the fact that I was Sectioned, I had every intention of killing myself at that point so it was a no brainer for the docs.

Saw the OT today. Dad told her I'd been doing really well this week She is trying to squeeze me into the next mindfulness course, and next week she is going to take me to sign up for a MH jewellery class. She's also going to make sure that I'm on the psychologist waiting list, and find out what's happening with the pdocs (apparently they closed my electronic file even though they told me I'd see them when I left the hospital, though I don't really care if I see them or not as I'm not on meds and they're crap). And I'm to continue doing what I'm doing ie getting up early, keeping busy & showering once a week.

Mum had her biopsy today and then they're going to start treating it. They're hopeful that her liver & brain will improve with treatment, though it may be trial and error to find the right med. They won't be certain until the histology results are in which will be a few weeks, but I'm trying to be hopeful that the damage is still reversible, and I keep reassuring my Dad cos he's worried. My Mum yesterday said to me that I was the only one who truly understood what it was like for your brain/body to fail you, which made me sad thinking about how cross I was with her for being mean when it was her brain all messed up. I still worry that she won't get back to normal and I'll never be able to have a proper conversation with her again, but I'm trying to believe the spiel I keep spouting to everyone else.

Hope everyone else is ok

thank you guys for helping me. im so scared what will happen.

Newtus! We're all here to support you!

thanks cracking

i just hope im doing the right thing

I think you should talk to the new doc if your insurance will pay for it. Tell him all your concerns and see what he says. If the insurance will pay then maybe you could see him a few times before you decide on changing doctors. I don't know how the insurance works so you should maybe ask your dad to help you with that. Tell him you want him to be sure it will pay the bill so that you don't get billed and have a big bill to pay out of pocket. Maybe your dad can also check with your disability and see how it would be affected if you change doctors. I know you don't want to lose your disability payments. I know your dad is busy working but maybe he could make those two calls for you. You do have a big decision to make here. Only you can decide which doctor would be the best for your situation.

Newtus I know your dad is your only support system so even though he's busy working, get him involved too. With his help you'll be sure to make the right choice.

i think as long as i have a doctor i dont lose the payments. my dad just put some money in the bank for me to pay for this new one tomorrow.

hes definitely involved. he helps me pay sometimes and even goes in with me to see the doctor AND nurse.

Oh cool! Then go for it! Check out the new doctor!

You're lucky to have such a wonderful, supportive dad by your side!

ill see if i cant start keeping to myself so i dont go into hospital. i wonder if thatll be hard for me

I worry that it might make your depression worse. You are already alone when your dad is gone working.

yea it might. im hoping these antidepressants work. i need to keep busy i just dont know how.
