BoonDoc Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 If a pyschiatrist recommends a patient for pyschotherapy and it doesnt happen for 9 months is that appropriate? Are there standards? Shipmate, could you handle checking into the VA hospital for a while...this will get the needed therapy, and add to your claim for secondary depression all in. I know that I don't like being in the psych. wards, but I know it would help my/your claim. This is totally unacceptable. Have you keept calling them asking about your appt.?

HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted September 21, 2006 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted September 21, 2006 If you are symtpmatic you might consider a trip to ER where they will have to see you. I have done it before when I ran out of Meds. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
