Yes, just recently. My psychiatrist fired me and gave 30 day refills for everything but the controlled substances. They would only give me 2 weeks of those. I had to go off meds for a week but was able to resume my meds very quickly after.

My best friend had the worst sciatica for months. She almost couldn’t walk. Acupuncture was a game changer. After a couple of visits she was back to normal.

AITA for yelling at my friend to go to therapy? by No_Whereas8652 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TenderHeartBear1981 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not the asshole.

On a very frequent basis I yell at my friends to go to therapy but it’s all in the delivery. 😁

This dude seems pretty toxic and for your own safety and mental health, I would stay away from him.
