OMG! This is amazing. Today is a better day. HOLY CATS!

So, I tried calling my PCP and he is way overbooked. I wouldn’t have been able to see him for well over a week. I didn’t even make an appointment because I was disappointed and wanted to sulk a bit and then call them back. So I was sulking, my phone rang, didn’t recognize the number, didn’t want to answer, but I did anyway.

GUESS WHAT?!!!! It was a psychiatrist! He’s SOOO far away but he happily made an appointment with me. He even listened to my frustrated spiel about why I was excited to hear from him. Downside, he’s only seeing new patients in person, but he’ll actually see me and it’s an office with no other people so I guess limited risk?

Also, I just looked and this dude has high ratings on reviews! (90% of the doctor’s offices I called had reviews like, “this psychiatrist refused patient care and then they came and shot my dog” (exaggeration there but not far off from some of them).

So, in a couple weeks, I get to drive 25 miles to see a psychiatrist. He was shocked that I would even call someone that far away. One doc I called was like 40 miles away and that’s insanity. Honestly, probably, I can just get diagnoses from him and then make my PCP and therapist handle the rest.
