I had a telemedicine appointment with my psychiatrist today, the periodic check-in. I told her that my moods seem to be stable and basically OK, despite there being reasons [redacted] why I might be feeling down. Maybe the time of year is helping, or maybe this is the flip side of there having been no particular reason I was feeling down last month.
I told her that I've applied for SSDI -- she was unsurprised and thinks it's a good idea--and about the monoclonal antibodies.
Near the end of our appointment, she told me she's going to be leaving Mt. Auburn Hospital at the end of June. She's been working there and at the VA, which worked pre-pandemic but the burden of doing all her own administrative work in the last couple of years was wearing her out. So she's leaving Mt. Auburn, where she's been working for a few years, and staying with the VA, where she's been working for her entire career.
Since I'm not a veteran, this means I will need to find a new psychiatrist, or get my primary care doctor to start writing those prescriptions.
