I didn't know whether to mark this as "input" or "medication" but it's about my meds so here goes... 

I've been on this current combo of medications for almost over a year. The Psychiatrist at the old clinic I was going to assure me we would look into something different, but I had to move recently and getting a new psychiatrist is taking a long time. The last thing we talked about was getting me on my first mood stabilizers. And then I had to leave the state. Getting my records has also been a nightmare as I keep getting put on hold and then eventually hung up on...

In the new state I live in, I have a PCP but they can't prescribe me what I need. 

I'm trying my best to gut it out- use my coping skills. Use my journal. Review old behavior worksheets. But with each passing day I can feel my skin crawling more and more. Trying to avoid the vices that I know lead me to spiral. 

Just sucks when something that used to help so much fades. 

Does anyone have any suggestions for how to manage oneself in this situation? If you've been through it- did anything help you stay positive? 

I'm trying to remind myself that I WILL get to a doctor but it feels hopeless.
