A friend of mine has had mental issues. He called a Psychiatrist. The guy said he needed a referral from a Psychologist. My friend a few grand on pretty useless talk meetings, but got his referral. Gets his coveted time slot with the doctor. The doctor tells him today's fee is $450.00. Then $200 per month if I write a script. The guy knew he was short on funds. My friend paid, and walked away.
