Message: <blockquote data-quote="AuroraGyps" data-source="post: 1983384" data-attributes="member: 1166">I seem to be having a problem with the place I go for psychiatric therapy (therapist and shrink both at the same place).  Over the last 1 1/2 -2 weeks, I've left 2 messages on my therapist's voicemail (one saying I'd run out of meds, one canceling an appointment due to an anxiety attack, my 6 or seventh in a couple of weeks, and asking if she could call me during our appointed time, to give me some advice), a message with the office manager, and have talked to the receptionist twice (first my mentioning that my therapist doesn't reply to my voicemail messages and the second being told that my therapist was returning messages just at that moment).  Also, my mom has left a message or two and talked to the receptionist.  Sat around all day, everyday since Tuesday (and stayed off the phone) and no one has called.  Also, I sent them paperwork to be filled out for temp. disability around the middle of Nov (I haven't worked in 3 months) and they sent me back both forms, not filled in, except for someone's (I can't even tell who's) signature and the date they signed it the middle of Dec.  These people know that I am suffering from a social anxiety disorder and depression (which is getting worse and worse.... I'd say I could probably call it severe), that I need my meds, not only to function, but because the withdrawel symptoms are awful, and that I am currently going through a very rough time with work, and my life, and a lot of important paperwork (SSI, medicaid, foodstamps, etc... and I'm having an extra hard enough time with those without other people stressing me out too) which regularly stresses me out.  I've been so bad sometimes that I've mentioned suicide.  My question is, what do I do?   I owe some money from some previously unpaid sessions, but they haven't sent me a bill saying what I owe (which I couldn't even start to paying off since they messed up my disability forms).  Also, I've missed three apointments since I got back to Buffalo (twice due to anxiety, once do to oversleeping...  & they still get paid for a missed visit that's canceled under 24 hours before).  Would these people actually be taking this stuff out on me?  Is that ethical?  It would be nice to just get a quick call saying they got my message, are really busy, and will get back to me ASAP.  Ad I know I sound a bit paranoid, but that's the social disorder, always wondering what people are doing and why, feeling like no one hears what I'm saying or doesn't care, plus making phone calls are one of the bains of my existence.I'm trying to get better and back on my feet and back to work, but I'm being hampered by people that are supposed to be helping me.  I don't know what to do anymore and don't kow how much more I can take.  If anybody has any ideas or advice, please post, cause I really have no idea what to do and I'm getting desperate.  Thanks.</blockquote>
