It was horrible, it ruined two years of my life, I didn't even have a home phone, so every month I'd be using the grocery store phone to see if she'd called in my meds, and beg the pharmacey for some if they were not. It was humiliating and dangerous.
Finally I called my former pdoc from out of town, who knew I wouldn't lie about it, and in 30 minutes he had my meds phoned in, (on a SATURDAY) and said he would do that until I found someone else.
What's kind of funny was I told him I didn't want the mood stabilizers, and I said "I only needed them because I was being driven crazy by my psychiatrist"
I still don't need themYes there are some good Pdocs, but it's so frightening to even have to say that.
It's like brain surgeons you know, are people expected to accept that there are some good ones but "you just have to look around?!"
These people have lives in their hands. I would not have survived it if it weren't for my best friend, and my other Pdoc who believed me.
