Dr. Santissa Clapp, PMHNP-BC

I was asked three questions: do I fear abandonment, do I have a history of self harm, do I change my appearance. With those questions and the five minutes it took she diagnosed me with BPD, told my medication would never work for me, and that she would refuse to see me again. I would understand why she would say that if I was being disrespectful but I wasn’t. I was polite, but I think the fact that I was providing previous medical history that opposed her standpoint she became irritated. I have PTSD, generalized anxiety, and a few others, but instead of listening she talked over me and told me I was hopeless. She said she would refill my medications until I found a provider but only entered one into the system and it was the wrong dosage. Now I am in Effexor and Lithium withdrawal and all she’ll give me is a 5mg prazosin prescription when my prescribed dose is 7. SHE LITERALLY GAVE UP ON ME IN FIVE MINUTES!!!!!! Not worth considering!!!

Dr. Clapp, was very patient and understanding during our first session. She explained to me the long and short side affects (which are very damaging) with my current medication regimen. No other practitioner informed me of this before. We still have more sessions to go. I found the first very beneficial.
