Reply to comment by notnotpegbundy in Does anyone have experience with Eustasis? I was going to go there for an ADHD eval but it looks like a freaking car dealership. Just want to know if their service is any good before I go waste the effort, time, and money. by internationalkoala00
I was there when 6 employees all walked out within days of each other over the same incident.

Holy. Shit.
I also got told because I smoked cannabis, they would not prescribe be certain things unless they get a clean pee test from me. Which, whatever, but I was made to feel like a druggie for it. Which was the icing on the cake.

They aren't the only clinic like that. I'm at another one now that has the same policy, and threatened to drop me if I had alcohol in my system again (gosh, imagine being nervous the night before going to a new psych provider). Thankfully, after they saw I was overprescribed benzos and not drug seeking (I stepped my dosage down on my own), they relaxed that one. Eustasis didn't even warn me about interactions, they just said "take these".
I have a worse story but won't tell for my own privacy. I did feel in danger of being involuntarily committed and worse.

Fuck. I am so sorry. Seriously.

It's in the far past, now. I left there, got a great therapist and psych PA, and a little known drug that's rarely prescribed and rarely works but turned out to be a great help for me.
So all in all, while I'm not "better" by most definitions, I'm "okay enough" by my own.

Meanwhile I tell all of my other providers about my cannabis card and they just fucking shrug. Mostly at Mercy but also even at Burrell behavioral. It seems like eustasis is the only place being a dick about it

My current doc/therapist from mercy, “does it help?” Yes. “Cool. Moving on”
