Yeah, these docs have very little insight when it comes to mental illness. I once had terrible anxiety and went to a GP doc and heard her say just outside the door "if I ever get that upset over something that small I hope somebody takes me out and shoots me."
Well, I totally understand about the docs. They can be real ***clowns. I understand the disability part too, but don't convince yourself your too limited. What you need though is an MRI. I had one and it revealed damage. However, ultimately your gonna find out the docs dont have a clue what to do about it. The meds are to control it. There's no cure. You just deal with it the best you can. Im glad your sharing this stuff cause I think its important.....
I have had an MRI, Catscan, EEG and my jerking mini convulsions even happened during the eeg,but they practically ignored it. I am disabled, but I need to show proof something is there, even if the dr doesn't know what it is. None of them want to do that and it's infuriating. What I need is a SPECT scan and I can't get them to do one at all. I already know it can't be fixed, but that doesn't seem to get through to them. Thanks for commenting.
I do so enjoy your videos. You make a lot of sense. I am very interested in hearing about your particular medication and the journey you took re your bipolar / meds / diagnosis / relationships / doctors experience etc... Looking forward to the story.
I know and understand your fustration of this pass the buck garbage. It seems like a common practice among dr.'s for those who suffer from a form of mental illness. it's sad that they can't just listen to what their patients have to say.
Hey, I hope that things are well with you. Send me a message :)

That's really not cool, I hope you have a new dr now. It's amazing how much they are desensitized anymore.

THAT, is a sensory overload, I would just about BET that you have Asperger's at least mildly.
