A member asked:
My psychiatrist only text messages me and never returns calls even when i text i am severely depressed is this proper treatment from a psychiatrist?

Boundaries: Your mental health care must be accomplished in person. I would advise you to stop repeatedly calling and to make routine scheduled appointments on the schedule recommended by your doctor. Do not expect health care by phone or text.
