“Psychiatry must be treated by new words-----and meds, with a Christian doctor, in my experience, I had a trama at child hood, that changed and altered my brain chemistry , I became angry confused dellutional.... a exatioration is a lie... so to grow in the knowledge of God gives you the truth, for the thruth will set you free, sometimes it takes years, why?? one reason could be, God wants you to worship him, like a fish on a hook... and sometimes he keeps you hooked so u wont go 2 the world....”

“Virtual was very difficult for Jaxson, it was difficult for him to follow instruction, hard to concentrate on tasks therapist wanted him to complete. I don’t think it was a productive session”
“A good doctor if you need close, guided care. If you have been on medication for years and are just doing maintenance visits, I DO NOT recommend Dr. Hirsch. He refuses to write 90 day prescriptions even though it saves the patient money with insurance. He cites potential toxicity if you were to attempt an overdose. I find that insulting considering I've been on my meds for 25 years. I get the feeling he tries to see you often just to charge another office visit. I'll be looking for a new Dr.”
