At a recent meeting I described a colleague’s attempt to make an appointment with a mental health professional for her adolescent child who was experiencing some anxiety in the beginning of the current Covid19 Pandemic. While it is clear this child wasn’t alone, the response was “we can see you in three months, or four months”. My comment at the meeting was “how many would stand by if someone with noticeable hypertension was told “we’ll see you in four months”? The reaction was a predictable expression of disgust and frustration.
