re: Suicide is now the 10th leading cause of death in the US

True, the only problem is that it is not easy to schedule and see a psychiatrist in the short term. A lot of psychiatrists don’t take new patients and if they do you could be looking anywhere from 3-5 months to make the next initial visit. Meds then take about 2 more months to work. We do need more psychiatrists that actually care for the patient. I deal with many who are there just to collect a paycheck and get the patient out of the office. The good ones are some of the best people I’ve ever met and truely care. Unfortunately those are the ones who are hard to see.
