A good doctor is honestly worth their weight in gold, it can be so hard to find good medical providers
I’m so glad you’ve found yourself a good one 😊
I thought this was the D&D community and got very confused.
Wrong acronym.
Advanced Dungeons and Deficit Disorder
I love you pugjesus but when I saw this I was kinda hoping it was dogerwaul having gotten better news with their stuff since they were so depressed.
Nice! My GP listens, takes time and does the extra mile for me. Despite my crappy insurance that pays him very little for it.
But sometimes I blame him for not catching the ADD earlier. He prescribed me benzos as early as 2009 when things were repeatedly getting “too much” in every job or relationship after a couple of months. On the other hand, when he finally did refer me to a psychiatrist, he didn’t catch it either.
