While I understood Dr Tangs assessment, I do not feel like I was heard. A maintenance anxiety medication takes at least a month to be effective. It does not immediately resolve 3/4am, 11am at work, 9pm random anxiety attacks, that I noted. Which then affect my entire day because I’ve been awake hours and gone to sleep hours after my equals. While admittedly, I do have an alcohol problem, which I’m in recovery, it still shows up in its own ways, I have no history of RX abuse. I have never presented symptoms of RX abuse. Just simply trying to make it to the next part of the day. I was made to feel like I was asking for an illegal substance as a drug addict vs a panic attack resolution as it is affecting my job, my sleep, my relationships, my life.

I was never contacted by this doctor. I received a call from the office stating that I needed to complete paperwork which I did because once I sign in, said that I was all checked in the doctor never came to the appointment and proclaims have used the wrong email address, but there was no zoom or telahealth Emails or calls from either one of my email addresses. I feel as though this was done in order for it to be considered a missed appointment and he would still be paid through my health and insurance.
