Does anyone else get fired from doctors because you get upset when they won’t listen? Or you have explained that the treatment option offered is one you have tried and didn’t work?

@Daphne🧸 Yes, it just like a vet clinic when an animal is to aggressive or to scared and they get mouthy we fire them. Which means they can’t come back to the clinic.
Do you mean they don’t work with you anymore due to behavior? Since they can’t fire you.
@Nica I don’t get what you’re trying to say it’s just called firing, you can get fired either because you come there too much you’re rude, etc. so yes, basically they stop working with you which they call (firing). I said what I said
@Nica It’s called firing it doesn’t mean they’re actually firing you from a job like that’s obvious. What are you not understanding ?
I have been discharged from services after reporting a rude doctor's conduct to the state medical licensing board. She delayed my appointment for an IUD insertion over 4 hours. My appointment was.to have happened prior to lunch. I waited through lunch and my blood sugars dropped. She screamed at me for not having food at the ready. My appointment was for 9 a.m. - I still hadn't been seen by 1:30 p.m. 15 years ago I was misdiagnosed as having a mood regulation disorder when I truly had underlying type 2 diabetes, Hypothyroidism, Celiac diseasez and trauma causing an eating disorder ( where my OCD shows up in perfectionistic behavior). I had weight loss surgery and developed a life threatening condition that affects my blood sugars. I was dismissed as being mental and put into psychiatric treatment. I almost died due to hypoglycemia. I had to fight to find a provider who would listen and help me on the road to recovery. 6 years later I am properly diagnosed, have gotten help for my health concerns, and am pursuing a graduate degree in medical malpractice law and Healthcare law and policy. That said- report the foul behavior of bad doctors. Post negative yelp reviews. Tell them that their credentials are MD not GOD. There is no place.for ego in the medical profession. I kept fighting and was finally heard. Don't take it personal if you're discharged from care- if your provider is a jerk- please tell the medical licensing board in your state. It's the only way they're held accountable for their behavior.
@DogMama41 This has also happened to me while I was trying to turn in a rude doctor
@Fullmoon20 There should be protections for patients against retaliation
@DogMama41 Yeah but there isn’t and it’s sad
I feel like in some ways receiving a diagnosis for OCD has in some ways made things worse. I’ve always had what I called “phases” throughout life, which I now know were ocd episodes, but I didn’t really make too much of them and even if it was over several long difficult months, they’d always seem to kind of just pass. Recently I’ve begun my worse flare up in the last few years and now that I’m older I seemed professional help which led to my diagnosis. This all sounds great of course but I can’t actually afford therapy right now so I kinda just have the diagnosis but not the support so now that I realize these phases are actually this incurable mental illness I just feel like I’ve lost all hope that I’ll ever be happy and I feel like I basically obsess about obsessing at this point and it just sucks. Has anyone else had this or a similar experience?
I’m turning 30 in a few months and all I can think about how my Parents never took the initiative to actually help me when it came to my mental illness. Now my OCD is probably the worst it’s ever been and I feel like I can’t do anything. Like I’m trapped in a tunnel and there’s no way out. I’ve gone from job to job, never fully finished my degree due to severe OCD/depression never making enough money for professional help and being gaslighted all these years about my illness. I resent my family and myself for not trying hard enough to get better. If anyone can relate feel free to share. Anyways I pray this year will be the year I find my out.
I’ve been going through this rough patch for the last four months, and I can already feel an even worse one coming. I just feel scared. And on top of that, I’m going to stop therapy. After everything with my current therapist, I just don’t have the strength to keep trying anymore. I feel hopeless. My head hurts so much, and it’s hard to keep going when everything feels this bad. I just want to cry, hope this feeling passes, and maybe try again if it ever lets up. But right now, it feels like nothing will ever get better. I don’t feel like I can ask for help. I hate that it took me so long to realize this wasn’t the therapist for me. I was too scared of being dramatic, so I let it go on for far too long, and now I feel like I’ve just become a burden-like. I hate that I let it get to that point, especially when I was paying for this. I just want to give up. I feel broken down, and I don’t even want to be okay anymore.
