hi blind, i’m in bad shape and need help. i think i need to see a psychiatrist. without getting in to too much, my symptoms are depression, anxiety and self medicating heavily with booze. i don’t really have a regular general doctor either.
Hi, I don’t know a psychiatrist directly but you can be seen as soon as tomorrow morning through one medical group. They have offices all over sf. They will be able to help you immediately. Please reach out over dm if you want to talk more.
thank you.
Psychology today has a pretty decent psychiatrist search. Theres a bio etc for every doctor. But it might be cheaper to find a primary care physician first and get a referral. Depending on your insurance.
Have you tried teledoc for psychiatry? I use pacific medical psychiatry. You don't really need a referral. I find it easier to open up from the comfort of my own home.
A cute blonde with big boobs is the best cure for depression.
only for the moment
Sorry to hear this, OP :( There are a few apps out there that may help with immediate relief while you look for professional help, such as Talkspace or Headspace. One Medical has a dedicated app for this as well but I can’t remember the name (sorry). Hope all is well!
thank you.
I don’t have a recommendation but Kudos to you for starting to get help and see a doc. That can be the most difficult step in many ways.
I would get a blood test and check if you are low in key nutrients. Vitamin d3 supplementation changed my entire being within a few days EDIT: one medical helped me get my health in check in that regard. It really helped a lot. Timely medical care From there I would go to your insurances website and search for in network therapists within travel distance of work or home From there I looked at their websites and yelp reviews (not all have yelps). Then created a list and went for a session with each one I know it sounds like a lot of work but that’s really the only way
my vitamin d was low last time i did, about a year ago.
That would be the place to start. Message me for more info but 1-2k vitamin d3, calcium and 100mcg k2 supplement went a long way. I also do magnesium spray. That’s very low monthly cost for huge benefits. My d3 levels shot up and leveled out. Vitamin d3 ties to serotonin production I believe. You very well could cure your depression with that
Look for a psychologist before jumping to see a psychiatrist
thanks.
If getting there physically is a barrier, try BetterHelp (counseling) and LiveHelp (psychiatry).
TC?
