psa that in most countries other people can make phone calls to doctors for you i enlisted a friend of mine who wanted to help they called around at psychiatrist offices until they found a place that could help me i still wouldnt even have my diagnosis now if id had to make all those phone calls myself  its not shameful to ask someone to help you with this it is hard your friends care about you if you tell them how they can help a lot of the time they will be glad that they can help youre always allowed to ask and theyre always allowed to say no - thats the much better approach than anything that includes oh i cant ask that theyll feel obligated to say yes or oh i cant say no because they asked no youre allowed to ask for any help and theyre allowed to say no if they so choose youll find that often times people want to help and are super happy to find that theres something they can do to make your life easier  this doesnt just go for phone calls this goes for anything
