Follow the 'Register' link near the top of the page just above the 'google' box. Then type your posting name and password into the 'update registration' bit. Then you should be able to turn your babblemail option from off to on. Babblemails will be sent to the email address you registered with. The recipient will not be able to tell your email address. If they want to reply then they need to send you a babblemail. You can babblemail by opening a post from the person you want to babblemail. If they have the babblemail option switched on then their name will appear in blue near the top of the box. That is a link, follow it to babblemail them :-)
(It isn't as hard as it sounds)Yeah. I have heard of people just grabbing their file out of their p-doc's hands and running off with it! Then it is gone for good! Unfortunately, unless they have all 7 on them there is still a record of me, sigh. But yeah, it is not worth the paper it is written on.
I would do the commute if it came to that. What I am most afraid of is that this person is not the specialist my p-doc has mentioned before. What if this person is supposed to see me and make a 'no treatment' reccomendation? Then CMH can say that they paid a lot of money for me to see a good specialist and he concurred with my last two psychology assessments that I am unsuitable for treatment? What if it is just a way to get rid of me?
I doubt that they would fund me to see a specialist psychiatrist twice a week. But as I keep saying to them: IT IS CHEAPER THAN FUNDING ME TO GO TO ASHBURN. And it is preferable to me also. I think the idea is that this assessment will determine the $$$ constraints. At the end of the day that is what determines whether I get adequate treatment or not. I am only too aware there are competent people out there - it is just that there is nobody competent to treat me in the CMH system in our region. And possibly in any other region either.
