    When you said you have to wait a month to see your dr, do you mean your GP or a psychiatrist? Cause, if it's a month long wait to see a GP, that's completely ridiculous.
    Have you always live in Fort Mac?
    GP and can't see a psychiatrist its like a year wait..
    No im from BC the West Coast...
    I hate this place almost as much as anxiety itself!!
    Majority of the people that are here are Newfoundlanders...
    Happy to have another Canadian to talk too on here lol seems like the majority on here are from Europe or the States....

    yeah. There are a lot of newfies in fort Mac. Are you there because your husband works there? I don't think I would like living there either. I know what you mean, it is nice to talk to a fellow canadian.
    That is so crazy that it takes a month to see your doctor. I can usually see mine within a day or two.
    Anywho, hope you get a good night sleep tonight!

    And where are you? Thanks i hope so too!
    My polish friend son moved there lately, and he loves the place.
    I imagine the health care and number of doctors is limited. I live in southern Ontario, and we still have long wait for specialists app. However we have a lot of family doctors around, and I wanted to change, so my hubby , and my daughter, but none of us got called in. We put out a quiet few application. I am stacked with GP who i think should not work anymore.
    you do not have enough, we have enough, but they only take healthy people in.

    The snow is tainted with mercury and Cancer is a huge thing here.. There's air quality issues all the time and the Dr.s are all very foreign and hardly speak english.. Its a nightmare for anxiety sufferers to live here.. They send ppl to the ER for everything and the drs work half days and 4 days a week with month vacays all the time... Its a shit show... My GP once told me i was paranoid ad sent me into a whirlwind...
    Ive been trying to sell the house and move back to BC for two years now... I feel i will only get the help i need from a move back out of a transient place where they have people that actually know how to help with such disorders such as anxiety ect...
    I just want to run away from here sometimes!
    I am happy yours sons friend likes it here though!
    Its where the money is..
    Not so great for me as i am an animal and environmental activist and this is a yucky, dirty,toxic mess and killing animals is a fun pastime for a majority here.. So i have a lot of guilt anxiety just for being here...
    I'm sry for ranting lol having a rough day today
    I hope you get the new Dr you need!
    We out here cannot switch drs even if you don't like their manners or their doctoring skills..
    Its shitty...
