Q: Are you suicidal?
A: If I were suicidal I’d be dead but my meds aren’t working right I need to see a real psychiatrist.


...we don’t have a psychiatrist available talk to your general practitioner

I tell the GP I feel “wrong” “awful” “depressed” on and on

You need to see a specialist

I tried everything to see a psychiatrist

That’s all we can say. Keep trying.

...

Try what. I went everywhere.

And doing all that when you feel like that. Alone. It was exhausting.

There’s nothing but quackery, jail, church, and rich people ****.
