My problem is military doctors. They all admit I need to be on meds right away but the only way they will do it is if I let them hospitalize me or wait until the 25th of this month. I have already been waiting 3 weeks. They want me to call if I'm suicidal. Like I would be dumb enough to do that. I tried to explain to my doctor about how fast I'm cycling and all he says is that he doesn't know enough and that I just have to wait until these stupid navy pshychologists get back off of leave.
All I want is some help without the fear of being locked up. I can't leave my children and if they put me in the hospital to even me out I would lose my business.
I don't know how much more I can take. I totally sympathize with you about the doctor situation. I just wish I could find one person that would help and not judge me, or tell me to just get over my problems and move on. Even if I was suicidal I couldn't go through with for 20 more months because my life insurance policy won't cover suicide for 2 years. Can't leave my husband with nothing to take care of the kids with. Hope one of us has luck with a doctor soon.
