Went to my doctors appointment but it was fucking pointless, they booked it as something else 🤦‍♀️ what a waste of time
Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    Ah @Rose113 that sounds incredibly frustrating! I'm so sorry that happened. That's not fair, esspecially when you've been waiting.

    What did they say about getting a correct appointment booked in?

    @Sian321 i was too scared to say anything, I didn’t even like the lady she was so rushy so I just left it and now I’m just crying over it. I’d spent weeks stressing over this appointment and it was a fucking waste of time. It’ll be 5 weeks till I can even get another so I give up with it. I give up with my mental health

    Vent:

    I went to the doctors to get fucking help with my stupid mental health yet no they fucked up the appointment and put the appointment as something to do with my periods and my meds for it and because the woman was too busy to deal with me I was in the fucking room 2 minutes and she told me she was taking me off my meds, could of just fucking emailed that.

    How the hell did she think it was a good idea to take me off my fucking meds when I’ve got a stupid condition and need them.

    TMI abt period:
    My periods were every other week at one point and I was in constant pain and I kept fainting as a result of loosing too much blood because I couldn’t control them and had to go bathroom every hour to change, so basically they ended up diagnosing me with a condition

    I was still getting the pain and also my anxiety increased so that’s why she took me off them but if she looked at the fucking system she would see I have them for the stupid pain but she was too fucking busy to deal with me ffs

    Awww @Rose113 , I'm so sorry to hear this and your fustration is completely understood and I can relate to this. While I've now reached a better point with gp appts and my relationship eith her it wasn't like this before. I used to leave the room in floods if tears. I'd go in freeze and theyll be like ive goy so many patients I need to see, call if your not going to talk then just go.

    Did I read somewhere your mum booked it?, did she come with you therefore if she did did she not say.

    The issues now I imagine is one your mental health and two your meds for periods. It was bad of them! I know it's hard but I imagine you need to for your meds, can you say abd explain this bad experience you've had and re bokk am appt perhaps eith soneobe else. When I had a rushed appt with another gp I phoned up reception and explained my unhappiness with the appt and she got the doc I saw to pjone me who then apologised and went through it with me and then booked me an appt with my gp. I know I may have been lucky but wort trying. I now tend to be seen towards beginning or end of clinic so theyrr not as rished as opposed to seeing thrn in the middle. Remember you are also entitled to say you would like a double appt to give you longer time! If in comtrol then try and get time like towards beginning or right at end, theyrr less overwhelmed then..
    Does that help?
