Psychiatrist wrongfully denies klonopin

My psychiatrist wrongfully denied the highly addictive medication, KLONOPIN, for a week to ''punish'' me for stop going purely voluntary to AA meetings. I went crazy - cut off all my hair - couldn't sleep for 4 days - suicidal attempt - vomiting etc.

Re: Psychiatrist wrongfully denies klonopin

Golly. To sue the psych. you would have to find another psych. to testify that psych #1 violated the standard of care. Then you would have to convince a jury that your cutting off all your hair, etc. was the result of the psych's negligent treatment. Who knows, maybe you can find a lawyer to take your case. Be sure and keep the receipt for your wig or toupee.
