On my own :(

My doc in Kingston told me today it was our last appt. Apparently because he has made all the recommendations to my family doc it is now his job to follow up. Which he isnt. One rec was a new med. He wont put me on it cause its new in Canada. Another was a team that specializes in anxiety which would be PERFECT, however my doc has something personal against the person who runs it so he wont refer me there either. My last hope is that he sends me to CAHM. Which as of yesterday he had not done anything about. So here I am back at square one, anxiety is horrible, no appts left with the EAP counsellor and no more appts in Kingston with the phychiatrist, so I am screwed.
Plus for the first time ever Steve and I are having problems. His being diagnosed with depression has caused problems. I guess he feels now that he does not have to watch the kids etc that he needs all the free time he can get and I am stuck doing it all. Why do things have to be so hard :(

Oh hun. I'm sorry Steve is acting selfish and your Dr. has whatever up his bum. I know it's hard but can you get a new dr.? Have you told your dr "this is what I need" and not taken no from him? I'm sure you have. It's not fun knowing you need help and not getting it. Is Steve getting help for his depression?

Hugs and remember, there will be an end, you just have to keep going and working through it.
