Shocked I am a different kind of depressed

I feel awful. And scared.

I am not even sleeply/tired.

Just straight us really bad.

Thumbs Down

My psychiatrist is only making appointments for Mondays and Wednesdays.

I have a full workload those two days. This means that the last time I will see her is March 6.

Her people cannot schedule an appointment for earlier unless I can do a Monday / Wed.

I put in a call to the Therapist I last saw a year and a half ago.

Don't they have any wiggle room for urgent , possible crisis cases, or to squeeze someone in for a quick appointment?
Can you email your psychiatrist or office staff and tell them how you are feeling right now?

Mdoc cannot do anything. I have not tolerated ANY of her meds.
We tried lots of meds over a 12+ month period and each one had unbearable
side effects.


Old tdoc called me back but will call again about insurance.
She did not help me much when I was seeing her. She and I talked about
happy things because that is what she wanted to hear.
^^^
It sounds nuts when I say that, but it is true about the "happy" therapy sessions.

Late Thurs afternoon I drove to the beach. It was windy and cold but helped.
Then I went to my friend's house for a few hours and got back home late.

I'm sorry you had such a bad day, Mari

I have seen some commercials lately for telephone/internet therapy. I don't know if that is something you would be interested in, but here are some links:

Telephone therapy can be "helpful":

Study shows telephone counseling can be effective

Benefits of Therapy by Phone (NY Times):

The Benefits of Therapy by Phone - The New York Times

Guidance about web-based therapy:

What you need to know before choosing online therapy

Research on internet-based psychotherapy treatments:

Internet-Based Psychotherapy Treatments | Society for the Advancement of Psychotherapy


I hope today is a better day for you, Mari

I have to go to the dentist Thursday afternoon at 5:00. The last time I went
I had something very close to a panic attack. It's possible I did not take Klonopin, although I do most times.


I am worried about driving home in afterwork traffic with Klonopin.
'Seems like 0.5 will be a good amount -- right up to the edge of being safe on
the road. I DON'T KNOW.
Also I get Nitrous oxide.
After I get out of the chair, I sit for a while in the waiting room to let the Nitrous oxide leave my system a little.

I am glad they offer nitrous oxide to you.
That should help.
