For all of the responses. The unfortunate aspect of my job leads me to deal directly with psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists on a pretty regular basis. I remember after suffering a panic attack several years ago, I went to the emergency room...this was before I was placed on SSRI's and went to a treatment group for depression/anxiety.....the clinical social worker was to evaluate my condition and determine what needed to be done. Well, after an hour of conversation, she thanked me for the advice I gave her on her dysfunctional marriage, and would take the steps I recommended in order to begin improving her lot in life. So much for an invervention. I, obviously have a difficult time, not only finding someone that I entrust with my mental health, I also work in an agency that makes it even more difficult to find someone that isn't connected to our department in some way. I am concerned, also, about signing a contract with my local HMO doctor for narcotics. Since this HMO is provided to our unit with our contract. The ebb and flow of my foot pain is so exasperating. I will be on Lyrica for a couple days and seem to notice an improvement, only to find that my feet will than begin to ache again. I will be off the meds, and doing okay, and blam!, the pain returns. This, along with my inner groin pain that is lancing in nature, and goes away as soon as I shift my body. Oh brother!
