I really need some insight...me and my parents discussed options to help me.I did the hospital thing once,and i do NOT will NOT go again.
I dont like my laces to my shoes taken,i dont like being talked to like an iddiot,and like a baby by some 19 old intern.
I dont like being patranized by them either.I dont like talk therapy sessions with strangers,i dont need random people to hear my life,and i dont need to know others,people beside me,there stories and current treatments scared the living hell out of me.
What makes hopsitals think that OPEN sharing is good for everyone,maybe some people want there problems private with a select few or professional.
I dont like the cold white beds,and i just will not go,ill gladly go to ER take scans eegs whatever but i told them i will not go to a hospital,there is not direct access to a docter,ur not getting much more time with a doc,i just dont see it as a option.soooooo
WHAT I ASK HERE IS......does there exist a type of p-doc who provides more than a 15 min med check.Are there any docs who can devote hrly sessions as a therpaist can.Me and my family want to explain fully how certain drugs respond,via dose amount,time of day,combbination etc
We wanna get into detail with the drug prescribed and my moods to them.We need more than a 5 min whisk thats so fast im babbling like a fool just to get in simply what i NEED refilled,nevertheless discuss them in detail.
I will ask my doc office monday if my doc allows for extra payment this type of extended service.I am getting no where with 5 min med checks and hour therapy is great time wise but as u know they cant touch meds.The whole process is just whacked..
I dont see how a doc can work with adjusting 2-3 meds,there dose,there time of day dosing,deceding if they are even working in 5 min time.
I thought there was a type of doc that was not only a thrapist but also an md who can use meds too.
If i had an hour to combine details of my life,my everday behaviour,as well as know aside from discussion medication can be tweaked to my info as well,then i would LOVE THE ODEA OF THERAPY.
YESS dont shove a drug at me,listen to me,my behaviour,my reaction to things,but have the power to not only offer cognitive therapy but medication as well!One person,one visit,this is need dedsperatly.
