[quote=Anonymous]I’m fat, no (ha) sugar coating it. But I was seriously depressed after my mom died suddenly. We had just moved, so I found a new PCP to get a referral and she quickly tells me that I’m not depressed, I just need to exercise more. She then makes a big show of pulling out her prescription pad and writes me a “prescription” to get a personal trainer. She refused to give me the needed psych referral. All she could see was fat that needed fixing. Exercise is important, but not to the exclusion of absolutely everything else. She wasn’t interested in hearing the exercise I was doing, because it clearly “wasn’t enough.” Yay for bedside manner. Yes, exercise is important, but WTF, lady?! [/quote]
