Well, went to my MHMR appointment that THEY made for me. I get there only to find out someone dropped the ball and they didnt know I was coming. I was already in one of my bad moods when I got there. Trying to be a nice as possible, I told the lady this is ridiculous. She took the time to at least get my info and schedule me for another appointment for next tuesday the 11th.
She asked if I would be fine until then. I told her I've managed 4 years without meds whats another 1 week. She gave me the special card to call if I felt real bad..lol. I topld her I was already diagnosed with BP from a well known therapist in N.C. I gave her his info. Maybe that will expidite matters a little faster.

I am sorry that happened, that can be so frustrating. See it on the positive side. Take this time to take alot of notes about how you feel and have been feeling. Call you other pdoc and make sure he sends your records for review. Then, when you do see this one, you will be really prepared for the meeting. Breath and slow down, this isnt your fault, you are trying to move in a positive forward direction. I admire you for sharing here to vent, it is all we can do sometimes. I support you.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
