Who do you go to if you want to get help? Family Doctor? Psychologist? Pychiatrist? Therapist?

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 4 points 9 months ago

Family doctor/general practitioner. Psychiatrists can prescribe it as well though.

I mean, every single person in my life has always said if bad things happen in my life its because I let it happen. I have trust issues and few friends.

I need to figure out how to get a proper diagnosis. The VA keeps telling me I just suffer from PTSD and handed me some SSRI’s. I’m almost positive I have ADHD but I don’t know where to look to for a proper diagnosis with a second opinion ugh.

Any good online sources for assessment, talk and medication therapies?

I have zero doubt. Going through 2 hours of testing, getting a stack of notes from the specialist, and having said specialist sit there and explain behaviors to me helped too.
