I had some memory/ attention testing done and then met with the psychologist. The tests were done because I have problems with memory and attention. The guy hadn't even read the test results before we met. He was flipping through pages reading material quickly and not completely. I've been telling 'helpers' along the way about how much of a problem this is for me and that it's getting worse. The test results did in fact show that it is worse than before. ( I had testing done in 1992).
He blamed my age, my meds, me and proceeded to ask me if all my meds are really necessary. I tried to tell him that I've had problems before I was on any meds, but that I thought the meds probably made it worse. He just wasn't listening. He then proceeded to ask me what I thought would happen if I wasn't on my meds. Stupid ass! I wanted to get off my chair, leap across the room and smack him for being so stupid and insulting. Do I really want to be on my psych meds? My RA meds? I mean what the **** about bipolar does he not get? What part of my other health conditions does he not get?
Boy am I steamed!
