So I just got word that my psychiatrist is no longer accepting medicaid patients, and I'm going to have to start over AGAIN with a new psychiatrist.
I cried upon hearing this. I really liked my guy. Been seeing him for a few years. Plus its a pain to have to find someone else who accepts medical card, get a referral from my doc, etc...ugh I hate the state of illinois! Stupid Stupid Stupid.
Why do poor people not deserve the same health care as everyone else? Are we not good enough? I havent been to the dentist in over 2 years because I can't find one that will take my medical card! Thank god I have never had a cavity (yet). I need my teeth cleaned, but can I get that? NOPE.
I clearly need to see a psychiatrist, but now I have to waste time looking for another, and in the meantime I will probably run out of meds and lapse back into a depressive coma...
What the hell?
