I just found out today that my Tdoc quit where I was getting therapy...my appointment had to be rescheduled that's how I found out.
I've already seen two Pdocs---each only one time.... I now hear that the second one was only there on temporary status and she's gone... so I will be meeting with Pdoc #3 the first week of October. I have such a fear of new people that I am already freaking out... I am having the "why bother, why try" feeling right now. It seems that I get in a "groove" with therapy and then have to start all over.... Right now... I'm standing on the edge again... not sure that jumping is not the best thing.... don't worry...I'm not going to jump... probably just climb back into my cave.  Abbie

oh abbie,
how dissappointing... I can't believe they did not tell you. Write things down in a time line so it won't be so hard retelling your story with the new ones. This has to be hard.... you have done this before and you can do it again. hang in there sweetie ((((HUGS)))) bizi

I just lost my therapist and was in the waiting room and heard how wonderful a therapist at the clinic was. I asked for her as a replacement.I have gone to her twice now and looking forward to seeing her again. Strange how things work out. The next one you see might be better. I still don't think it is fair though. Stay safe in your cave until you have to come out

Ya... the office person that I spoke with was also surprised that I had not been told.... My new appointment is with the new head Tdoc for the center.... this fact has me doubly wigged out... I don't deal well with new...let alone having to deal the person in charge. I will try to write things down...but I know I am going to forget a lot... my brain is pretty scrambled right now.... Abbie

Do you have a time line or history of symptoms and such on your computer?
I started one when I had my comp claim, in case i needed it. my brain was foggy due to stress and symptoms at the time. A nice thing about doing it on the pc is if you forget something you can go back and add it in the right place in sequence. And you don't have to rewrite it all over again.{ plus my handwriting is really bad now.  }I did mine in MS Word back then - but now I use the free Open Office.org program.

Thank you all...
All of my journal and notes/timeline are on the laptop that caught fire. I have not even tried to start a new one on this computer. I was finally able to fall asleep early this morning.... I'm sinking in a depression right now... everyone is leaving me friends and doctors.... I can't take any more... Abbie

Dear Abbie,
You don't have to come up with a time line from scratch for now. The docs will know what questions to ask. Here's a suggestion if you are up to it: --write down a list of everything that is a problem right now (big and small) --write down a list of your meds You can type up these two lists and hand the new person the lists. Then let them ask questions that occur to them. Mari |

Good Idea Mari.
And Abby for one of those things, please make sure you add. Coming to a therapy appt. and finding out my doctor skipped town. And I'm just left in the dark and foggy world, till someone can come rescue me. Its not somewhere I ever want to be again. Can we make it a place that I don't return to. I don't think that is a unresonable request but maybe not worded right. And it is something you have the right to ask for. Even though I am pretty sure you would say. "I can't say that" Donna |

Abbie, do you go to a clinic to see your pdoc? If so that could be the reason why the docs keep leaving. Often pdocs will do their residency at clinics and leave when they are done. I had the same problem one time and had asked for the pdoc who always stays at the clinic who is usually the head pdoc.
