Mad Library Scientist

Still a mad library scientist, even if I'm no longer a librarian. Once you put on the cardigan, it never really comes off.
It's bad enough I'm pissed and scared of the world at the moment. I don't need the same callous attitude from my doctor's office.

I know they need rules. I just wish there was a middle ground between 1 minute making or breaking your appointment and a free for all.
The IDGAF attitude from the receptionist didn't help matters.

If it wasn't for my ADHD and need for Adderall to function, I would probably end up in that boat very quickly. My anxiety and depression are easier to exist through.
Fighting the system to get help is hard. Fighting your own brain to get help is hard.

Now, I'm not suicidal. But my symptoms have been bad enough that I didn't want to feel like this for another 6 weeks.
But if they had told me to reschedule, it would have been so easy to say "fuck it, don't bother." So easy to just never come back to this doctor. So easy to undue my progress.

Normally I'm really good about estimating for time. Today I wasn't.
The only reason they were able to see me is her next appointment had canceled.
This was an emergency appointment, due to the depressive symptoms I've had lately. If they hadn't seen me today, it would have been another 6 weeks.
