Default I threatened to bomb my doctors office, kinda(long)

I have been sick since the beginning of Feb. I have been in and out of this office continually till the beginning of March. Literly in feb I was in this office atleast 2 times every week. Then things just stopped, But not my problems. I have been trying to see someone for 2 months , all the while my symptoms are getting worse. So I get assigned a new doctor, not my doing, and I make an appointment to see him. I get there and he walked in the office telling me all the things IM doing wrong. He hadnt even sat down yet! Then he tells me that hes not going to do ANYTHING for me because everything has already been done. And then to top it off he refuses to give me my Effexor XR script because he says it a strong medicine "not water". Im crying by this time (15 min into the app), and tell him Well DUH if it was water Id take a drink and be fine.
So he stood up and said hes not taking care of me go talk to someone else and left!!! Now being honest I did add a swear word in that last sentence(not the F word) and as he walked out having done nothing but cause an anxiety attact I did call him an Jackass.
So I went to the receptionist in tears, hysterical, and hardly getting any oxygen when she said Can she make me feel beter?and I said in full sarcasm, yeah I could blow this place up. Then told her I need to change my doctor. She called the Manager and within minutes I had 5 different people trying to help and listening to me. Of course they said making bomb threats can get you put in jail. I told them that will be great, maybe there Id get medical help.
Now mind you I would never do anything violent and didnt even mean it, I use sarcasm when Im hurt and I was as hurt as you can get without a death being involved. And considering what I have and still am going through youd think theyd start off not attacking me. Im not proud of my behavior but I really had to tell someone.
Your allowed to post and call me crazy, or tell me off for bad behavior, but Id rather you post and remind me that when life gets amazingly hard there stll is a light at the end of the tunnel. I need hugs but have no where to go and the tears are really hurting my face.

AWW! Sounds like a really bad day! Did they sort you out after you talked to the receptionist? Maybe finding a new doc's office where you can start off fresh would be good for you. Good luck, and remember it's okay to cry!!

I can't beleive the doctor treated you that way!! That was totally unprofessional and uncalled for!! Was it a military doctor? I guess they don't worry about it because the people have no other choice.

I am so sorry this happened to you. Talk about kicking a person when they are down. You deserve much better treatment than that! You came to him for help, not to be put down! I hope that you are able to get a kinder more understanding doctor who will really do all he can to help you. You are going through some hard things right now, all made harder by your husband's absence.

You can always cry on our shoulders. We are here for you. Hang in there. It really does get better. Just remember that there can't be a rainbow without clouds and a storm.

Hugs,

Nancy

I'm so sorry about the way you were treated. There is no excuse for that. This man is a doctor who's supposed to want to do everything he can to help people. I can completly understand your frustration.

We're always here if you need someone to cry on.

*hugs*

Wow, so sorry that you are in that way. Getting a doctor that you can feel comfortable with is a large part in the healing process. I always hate it when the appointment is shorter than the wait time to see them. I would try to find a doctor that will take his time with me and listen to what I have to say and treat me like a person and not just a statistic. I hope you are able to find such a doctor...that is 75% of healing process. Good Luck and I hope you feel better.

I am in disbelief of the terrible way you were treated by that creep that calls himself a doctor. I am so sorry you went through that, and hope that you find a doctor that listens to you and does his/her best to help you. Hugs to you!

Hey - I dont know what's going on or why you're seeing a doctor but I think you need to change and start fresh with another - have you thought of admitting yourself somewhere for a few days to get medical help ?

and please RETHINK the words - these days bomb threats are taken very seriously - you may want this thread edited - if they ever decided to 'come after' you - this can be used against you even though you didn't mean it...you can't be too careful these days - the net can be a ginormous place or a very small place

I hope things get better for you !! and ps - finding a good doctor is HARD.

After my husband died I was having really bad panic attacks and couldn't stop crying even in the office - it was like pulling teeth to get her to give me something to help me sleep - and the 1st doctor I saw wrote me a script for a freakin ANTIHISTIMINE ! I ended up paying more money to see a doctor that I knew cared and she was a big help....

Not only find a new Dr., but report this jerk to your County Medical Board. He shouldn't be allowed to practice.
