Wow....new insurance SUCKS! I got ahold of the website for the insurance we'll be getting as of June 1st and did a search for child psychiatrists in 100 mile radius and there is ONE!!!!!!
So, then, since I really (especially after a day like today) want to see a psychiatrist myself for an evaluation and some support, I looked up general psychiatrists in a 30 mile radius (so I could hopefully commute back and forth while the kids are at school and make it back before the bus gets here...that's my hope! It's a small time window)...a VERY SMALL list comes up....One psychiatrist is the ONE Child psychiatrist that my son would most likely be seeing (unless he is terrible and we find ourselves out of network) and the other one really close is MY MOTHERS psychiatrist! Beyond that, I'm looking at a 1/2 hr to 45 minute drive. Ugh.
So...is it terrible to see the same psychiatrist as your child or ACK...your mother?
