Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

I'm in a pretty rural area now and the wait times for mental health care are absurd. Literally 3 month wait to see the new psych after the previous one quit, perscribed new meds, she says "Ok I'll set a follow up appointment in a few weeks to see how you're doing" (long awkward silence) How does 2 months from now sound?

Bad, Doc, it sounds bad.
