Do not let them make you feel this way. Its your tax money that pays these clowns and if we ever get a universal healthcare plan in the US these jokers will be out of business.
You need your medications and you need to make that clear to them. Don't take any BS off of them. There are usually some mandatory phone numbers and addresses posted at county services to make a complaint or greivance, so make sure you get down there and get an appointment with them.
If you feel suicidal at all, make that clear to these people and that may help speed these overpaid county employees to get the message.
> So I called the community mental health center and talked to a clinician for about 45 minutes. He deemed me eligible and scheduled me for an intake! He made it sound like the center might balk at him a little bit for accepting me...Apparently, they are so overwhelmed, that most of the patients there are very severely ill and very needy. I almost feel guilty asking for a handout. I wish I didn't have to take these stupid drugs.
