Lizze is feeling pretty demoralized right now because it seems that everything she's doing and trying do isn't enough for this doctor to help her with her depression.
One of my readers had a really good idea.
If he's so concerned about her not continuing treatment, why not give her one month worth of meds at a time? In order to get her refill, she has to see him for it..
That makes so much sense. It ensures that she gets the help she needs and helps him to feel like she's going to keep coming back....
At this point, Lizze is feeling very demoralized, defeated and abandoned. She's not sure she wants to return to Cleveland now. I honestly can't say that I blame her.
I think we are going to work with her case manager to locate a doctor that can help her and is perhaps local.
She and I will have to talk about this because neither one of us like changing doctors, unless it's necessary. At the same time, if this doctor isn't a good fit, then it may be time to cut our losses and move forward with someone else.
I'm pretty frustrated right now because while I don't share every single detail of what is going on in Lizze's life, I know how hard she's working right now to get through this and for someone in a position to help her, essentially refusing to do so, is pretty messed up.
I'm so proud of what she's accomplishing on her own right now. That said, she can only do so much without help.
Nothing is ever easy... :-(
