I am having a really bad time just now, have been seeing my old GP even though I have moved house as getting a new one is a nightmare, but my old GP is happy for this to continue.
I wasn't coping yesterday and so did as my GP told me to do and called the practice. My GP is actually off on holiday so I got someone else. He basically told me that I was wasting his time, what did I expect to gain from the phone call, then ended the call with you need to find a new GP good luck with that good bye.
This obviously left me in a real state so my work sent me to the doctors after seeing how bad I was, having called ahead, I then had to see the same person who I spoke to on the phone. He basically told me that I was wasting his time, that what did I expect when I didn't even have an appointment and that he had, had to deal with me. He told me to go and find some activities to do.
It took me over 2 hours to get the courage to call to admit that I wasn't coping and now I feel like a complete failure. Is this normal for GP's to do this?
