I think my next step (if taking to my PCP doesn't do anything) would be to find a therapist and get a referral to a psychiatrist.
The hoops we have to jump through, and the many steps (that feel like walking through waist deep clay) just make me despair. It's so much work just to get ahold of a human and make an appointment
Got any holiday plans? You can do it in another country easily and cheaply (and quickly).
