  1. no they don't, what you say during the question the doctor may ask, and the reason for your depression, they might.


  2. As long as your are not abusing your perceptions. Also depends on what you are saying to them. You could always just call and ask the process on getting more or new perceptions. You do not have to tell them who you are just ask questions.  

  3. dude, are u gonna talk to me or not?

  4. yes its passable...the wife went to the dr's about depression and with 1 hour or being there 2 social workers were at our house to take my son into care....needless to say I WAS LIVID!!!!!....[they didn't take him,i wouldn't let him...how dare they].

    ....be carfull

  5. Nope. They won't. I told my doctor that..and I'm still here. I was precribed Prozac. I work in Social Services, trust me....you won't get hauled away to the "nut house."

  6. No. You need these tablets they will not contact social services. Don't worry about this - worry about your health and get well soon! x*x

  7. a patient has rights   if does with out your knowledge and approval there can be a law suit   You would have to sign a release form before he can do anything like that as long as u r not abusing the pills for any reason i don't see why he would have to contact social services  

  8. Unless you've done something with your other pills, or they have reason to believe that someone has abused you in some way - no.

  9. They will only contact social services if they think you might need support to help care for someone, or they think someone is at risk.

  10. no they wont as long as you wont do some stupid things

    hope that helps


  11. No they won't, it depends upon your age but certainly doctors where I live refer you to counsellers first. Then they decide what course of treatment you need. But no involvement of social services as far as i know, don't see why there would be.

  12. nope, well my doctor didnt? they would only do that if he had some reason to think your depression was caused by your family. and i mean they would really have to have a strong belief to do so

  13. Why would your doctor get in touch with social services????

    Doctor's have to adher to HIPPA. You Mom would have to sign a release.

    What does social services have to do with your health???
