Question by : What now?advice needed. am i out of options?
Was in a social services program for rehabilitation(not drug rehab). I can only go to the doctors they assign. I went to caseworker and told them I have a neurological disorder and may very well have problems because of that (brain tissue compression from benign cyst) that has yet to be diagnosed but is visable on an MRI. The caseworkers sent me to a 1st doctor who did not look at the MRI (or take it into consideration) at all. He did a short psychological exam and said I had “mixed personality disorder” and stated it was the reason I had trouble working and that I should “go for counseling”.
The case worker then sent me to a psychologist for 10 sessions. I have completed 7 of them(one hour each). We did nothing but talk about the problems I was having with getting a job and the obstacales. She did gueuinly try to make some good suggestions. But it was the good advice I couldn’t take so to speak because I had either already tried them or thought of the suggestions my self a long time ago and knew they wouldn’t work(for valid reasons). I told last time I went, I told the psychologist i didn’t want to return as I though it was doing no good. Was this the wrong thing to do? She knows only small details of my neurological diorder, but not of the compression from the benign tumor. The case workers are the same way. They know I have a neurological disorder but seem to be disinterested in thinking it could be the benign tumor. All focus is on the “mixed personality diorder”. I am not able to convence them to look at the other probable cause of brain tissue compression as the cause of my problem. No one will listen. What do I do? What can I say?
