Can't find a Psychiatrist in Tasmania.

[Anxoid]

Hi all.
I'm in an extremely bad way at the moment, and changing antidepressants (I'm over 2 weeks in, with no result yet), as the ones I've been on for 10 years or more seemed to stop working.
I've been on dsp for the last 2 years or so, for depression and anxiety, but the psychiatrist I used to see has retired. he also thought I scored very high for adhd as well.
My g.p has done a mental health plan, and referred me to a clinic but none of their psychiatrists are taking on new patients.
I've also called, many other psychiatrists, and none of those are taking on new patients either.
The only thing I can think of is online psychiatrists, but my g.p knows nothing about them, neither does anyone else I've spoken to. I don't know where to start.
Does anybody have any thoughts on choosing a good one? Or any thoughts on online psychiatrists in general?
cheers.

Hey Anxoid

Good on you for making the best decision you can! Sometimes its so much easier knowing we have made a decision which does take a huge weight off our shoulders 🙂

You have done well by finding a psychiatrist with only a two week wait! Good on you!

Your GP is always close by if you want any help too.....and of course we are online if you need any support

Its interesting you mentioned social anxiety as thats been an annoying problem for me sometimes after the mega anxiety attacks stopped happening

Thanks heaps for the super kind post Anxoid 🙂

my kindest always

Paul
