Taking lithium as a bipolar, my life started there
I'm currently off my bipolar meds, against my will. Insurance change required a doctor change, and finding anyone who was available within a months time was not possible.
I need shit to get back to "normal" in my brain. I'm not doing well. I wasn't before, but yeah...
Only a couple more days until my appointment. I had one last week, and they sent me to the wrong place, coupled with a whole slew of other issues, and I said fuck em. Thankfully found someone the second time around pretty quickly.
Dude I'm always surprised how shit health services are in some countries. I'm from Brazil and never got without meds in more 2 years of treatment. Now I'm moving to Portugal and I'm scared as fuck about it. But I always have the ER card. If I ever run out of medications I would run to an ER asking for more, I dont want want to die again, this is not an option where you are?
They're american. No we dont have a functional safety net or healthcare system.
