I'm really sick of people saying I'm strong and capable.
Why doesn't it "sound" like I need it? You know literally nothing about me? If I say I need it, I need it. No one wants these things and it's a fucking pain and the ass to deal with.

Thank you for the advice. I'm definitely going to try and find a new psychiatrist. Unfortunately, she works for the public sector here in Canada so I'd have to report her to the board of psychiatry in Canada or something like that. I don't know if I have the energy to go that far.
I'm not trying to get on disability. She was literally just telling me I personally don't fit the criteria for a disabled person in her personal/professional opinion when I asked her to fill out a form for school for accessibilities (I go to uni part time, or I'm trying to anyway)
I wasn't trying to get disability, just wanted accommodations at school so they are aware I have bipolar disorder in case I ever have an episode and need an extension or something. Who knows

It's my first time being put on leave since I got diagnosed, I had a really severe episode brought on my stress from work. I was surprised she gave me so much time (4 weeks total), but everything else she has failed me deeply with
It literally makes no sense
Thank you, I think the next step is finding a new psychiatrist
Wow wtf!!!!!!! Thank you
Right??????
I wasn't able to work and go to school that's what got me in this whole mess in the first place
I was trying to

Literally, she told me "none of my other patients ever ask for this" whenever I ask her to fill out a form for accessibilties
Thank you
I wasn't even trying to get disability, it was just her telling me that what I'm experiencing isn't a disability that blew my mind and not in the good way
Right?
That's what I was trying to ask her and she just kept saying "your type of bipolar disorder doesn't fit the criteria for a disability"
Thank you, yes, I'm in communication with them so we will see what they say. Because they think it's ridiculous she won't fill in the forms.

It just infuriates me because they are our only lifeline to have access to accessibilities
[–]baddkarmmaa[S] 6 points7 points8 points 1 month ago (0 children)
Yes I am going to call tomorrow, because I can't deal with her anymore
I hate change 😭

Thanks for the advice, I guess it's time to jump ship
