It sounds like your frustration level is really low. Are you taking any drugs that might be driving you? Some of these things will put you on edge. Just don't carry any bats or guns in your car.

Hello calnight, Just curious about you having to drive 160 miles round trip to Reno to see the VA shrink. I also live the same as you from Reno in Calif. Are you in GV or Aub. I am having problems finding a VA shrink at the Aub clinic to stay in 1 place long enough to introduce ourselves with the exception of travelling to Reno. I'm not a big fan of travelling to Reno on the van except I can't drive there myself because of my conditions. Anyway, just curious how you got hooked up with the shrink in Reno. They wouldn't let me go to any of the shrinks in Reno but they didn't have any available in Aub. Imagine that!!

Thanks in advance for any help....Brian

I LIVE IN SUSANVILLE THE CLOSEST RO IS RENO ABOUT 80 MILES ONE WAY. I BELIEVE DR VANBIBER GOES TO THE AUBURN CLINIC NOT SURE. CALL THE VA HOSPITAL IN RENO ASK THE OPERATOR TO TRANSFER YOU TO MENTAL HEALTH DEPT. SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TOLEAVE A MESSAGE THEY WILL GET BACK TO YOU. ASK IF DR.VANBIBER GOES TO AUBURN OR IF YOU CAN BE SEEN BY HIM. WELL WORTH THE DRIVE VERY GOOD DOCTOR SEEMS TO BE ON THE VETERANS SIDE MORE THAN THE VA. I HAVE SEEN 3 DIFFERENT VA SHRINKS BEFORE HIM ALL WERE ASSHOLES. ALSO THERE ARE NO CLINCS CLOSER THAN RENO I THINK THE CLOSEST IS IN REDDING OR CHICO BOTH ARE OVER A 100 MILES FROM ME. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE TELLING YOU HAVE TO GO TO AUBURN SINCE ITS CLOSEST TO YOU BUT I WOULD FIGHT TO BEEN SEEN BY WHO EVER YOU WANT. ITS ABOUT A 2-3 MONTH WAIT FOR DR. VANBIBER WE ALL KNOW MENTAL HEALTH IS OVERLOADED RIGHT NOW. JUST TELL RENO YOU REALLY NEED TO TALK TO A DOCTOR AND AUBURN HAS NONE AVAIBLE.

Calnight:

Glad that you are back on Hadit and also happy that you are getting good treatment.

As far as McDonald Nugget Adventure it appears to me you learned from it so that is good and the fact that you were able to get yourself extracted is also positive.

They sell pretty good chicken nuggets in the grocery store and you can heat them in oven. Another tip is we buy a lot of takeout from a local Texas Hamburger place and if they short me I write a note and tell them they owe me 1 Large Fry or whatever and they always give it to me so that is a remedy.
