Where do I begin. I thought I was the only one that left the hospital with a sour taste.

First visit was a few years ago where I walked in with partial Achilles tears. triaged all that jazz and patiently waited my turn. Lots of hours go by until a nurse walks me into the other waiting room, where she asked 'did you walk in? You should be in a wheel chair, you might need surgery' sat down in the other waiting room when I was seen by a doctor eventually who suggested I go in a cast for the next few weeks to get the tendons to attach naturally(ended up getting tears again). Nurse cast me up, gives me some crutches and then says doctor will come in and see you. I wait, all casted up, doc comes in and says we'll get you a wheel chair. But then I was told I was good to go, part of me will forever be waiting for that wheel chair lol

Next visit was for mental health regarding mental stability. Waited less then 7 hours to be a assessed a few times by a few nurses. Cool. I was scheduled to see a doctor. 2 or so weeks pass, I go in for the doctors assessment. I was told that the hospital would get back to me in regards to some sort of therapy. Never got that call for therapy.

The wheel chair was all fun and games, but the mental health for me is a problem. What really irked me was I just got a letter in the mail asking for a donation, but I haven't even got a call for therapy or a direction for therapy. I reach out for help and/or direction for mental health and I get nothing, makes me think and feel like asking for mental help isn't worth it since I have jump through so many hoops to get it.
