I disagree, and I always will. Nobody fits into one neat little profile, and a psychological label is just as dehumanizing as a racial epithet.mom2many said:You know labels aren't always a bad thing. They can actually help and open up a lot of resources they may not have existed before hand.
It's a petty distinction.She doesn't need a psychologist, she needs a psychiatrist.
Anecdotal evidence followed by strawman fallacy.Thank God this wasn't my attitude or my son would be walking around in his manic, hallucination state. He has Bi-Polar, you do not have to tell me how it works. I KNOW how it works. I've been dealing with it for almost 3 years now, and yes you go back and forth, that's to make sure the treatment plan is right and doing what it needs to do. So do you never go to a doctor either?
I've been denied all financial aid I've ever gone for, especially now that my grandparents are paying the bills. They claim that I qualify as my grandparents' dependent, and their income is too high for financial aid.How do you pay? You do whatever you HAVE to do, to pay for it. If your situation is as dire as you say it is. She would qualify for CHIP, state medical, not ideal, but better then nothing. It has a high qualifying amount, no excuses. My son's meds alone cost over $1000 a month, not including appointments. While he qualifies for state aid, he is on our insurance. Sorry but your excuses are not valid, and that's all you have is excuses.
Also, do you even know what state I live in? Because I don't think I've ever said that.
There are two adults in her life that care about her <I>at all</I>. Me and her mother. Neither of us is rolling in wealth and her mother is neurotic.Is there nobody in this girls life who gives a damn beyond having one excuse after another? Jesus it's like a bad B movie.
CHIP says "income may be too high to qualify."CHIP...CHIP...CHIP.
My grandmother counts towards this because I am, technically, her dependent as long as she's paying all the bills. She works at Boeing. Her income alone is over $60,000/year. Apparently that's too much for what is presently a 4-person home. (My grandparents, Sam and I.) The Boeing medical plan (according to my grandmother) doesn't cover psych, but it does (thankfully) cover Sam's <I>real </I>medical expenses.
Also, this looks to be based out of Texas. I live in Washington.
I do what I feel is required to make my points 100% clear. This way works very well, but if you'd prefer I do it another way, then fine, I will. I still have no interest in any more misunderstandings. They're unpleasant and time consuming, and I think we've had enough of them already.Now let me make myself very clear here. We have offer suggestions, we have offered advice. You don't like it, move on, but I guarantee you will get the same advice somewhere else. However, be rude or snippy to another member and I will ban you.
