It is by Gods grace that I am still alive today…

I was admitted at Akeso, Randburg on the 01/03/2024 then got discharged on the 20/03/2024, I then went back to work 1st week of April 24. On the 26th Apr 24 I unfortunately got a letter of retrenchment due to operational reasons….I notified my psychiatrist, ever since she has been giving me a cold shoulder, ignoring my text & calls…I went to my local clinic to get my prescription & I was told I needed a referral letter & my script/ empty containers so they know which medication I was on and a Dr will evaluate me…at this point I had no medication left…After numerous attempts to get hold of my psychiatrist then some day she decided to pick up my call and I notified her that I went to the local clinic to get my prescription then they requested me to bring a referral letter & script or empty container of my prescription she did not seem to have a problem with that , she asked that I WhatsApp her my email address, I immediately sent it this was on the 23rd May…as per usual I kept sending text messages/calls to remind her of the referral letter, she never answers…The last text I sent her was this afternoon 18 Sep 24, never got a reply….Early hours of this morning I texted my psychologist asking her to provide me with a referral letter and explained why it’s needed , she responded to my WhatsApp this evening at 19:42 , from the response's she was giving me it was crystal clear that she will not assist me instead she told me to go back there & call her so she can speak to whoever that did not want to assist me, in short I told her I will not go back there , shortly afterwards at 20:32 I received an email , attached was the referral letter I have been asking for… months ago and it was dated 5 Sep 2024. What hurts me the most in that they know what will happen if you don’t adhere to treatment , they used to preach the importance of it but because today I am unemployed I’m not worthy of their time /assistance….These past few months I’ve been really sick as a result to get better I had to use the money I got for UIF to buy meds which are very expensive and I could not take them as prescribed because I was saving them, once I feel sick I’ll resume taking them till I feel better, no words can describe the pain I have been feeling… Worse part they know I am unemployed ,facing financial difficulties with no financial support and still grieving my aunt/mother and my younger brother who passed early this year. My mom 27 Jan 24 and younger brother committed suicide on the 09 Feb day before his birthday, till this day I have not healed & that was the reason I had to get admitted to a psychiatric institution… this year so far has been hell & back…Personally I would not recommend Akeso Randburg.
