Behaviors Health (now the preferred term for psychiatric services) is overwhelmed everywhere. It was always lagging behind need, but the pandemic caused it to go from concerning to alarmingly slow. Try getting an appointment with someone. Especially if you can’t afford private practice BH therapists. Practitioners with major/academic medical centers, which pretty much have to take Medicaid, are more than swamped. It can take months to see someone for an initial assessment.

The only other group that compares would be dermatology. Why treat cancerous moles when you can make big bucks in private practice, injecting collagen into people’s lips/cheeks; and lifts, tucks and enhancements (butt, breast and calves. Yes, calf implants.) ? Oh, can’t forget Botox. Not being able to show facial expressions (and adding to that, getting too much Botox and looking like Matt Gaetz with his raised-at-the-end eyebrows) is of far less importance than not having wrinkles around your eyes, forehead and mouth.🤦‍♂️🙄👎
