Hello, Autistic 29yo survivor of 2 decades of abuse from parents, neglect, and sexual abuse.
I'm here to talk with others and learn healthy coping strategies.
I've been trying to get a appointment to speak to a therapist for 6 weeks now and no one calls me back.. I've been referred by my primary doc to 2 different behavioral health centers.. I've gone in twice, filled out paperwork, brought it back, was told it was too late on a Friday (3:30pm they close at 7pm) to make a future appointment!? Was told to come back Monday and if I came early enough and got in line someone might be able to see me..
Im not able to work much so dont have the money to waste driving back and forth for a "maybe".
I've called twice and explained the situation, they said someone will call me back, weeks passed and nothing happens..
I'm just starting to feel really defeated and I feel like I'm loosing hope, I went into this 100% ready to work on things and I feel like I'm being ignored.
I just wanted to make a scheduled appointment and see someone to get the ball rolling, is it normally this difficult in the beginning?
