Psychiatric help immediately?

I have been in line for two years to see a psychiatrist. I have been thrown multiple antidepressant antipsychotic medications, no blood work has been done on me, I'm on a lot of medications. I probably should be tested and I'm about to flip out I need to talk to a psychiatrist immediately.

I’m sorry to learn you’ve been having so much difficulty finding the help you need in a reasonable timeframe. If you’re in crisis I would suggest that you call 911 to be seen at your local crisis response center. Otherwise, perhaps your primary care physician or even a family member or a friend can help you get in touch with a resource to get you connected with a psychiatrist to get you on the right medications.
Okay, I could not agree more. Check out psychiatrist in your area who take your insurance if you have any. Focus on those that do blood analysis for compatibility with MH medications. If no psychiatrist exist who can see you timely, look for virtual sources who provide tele-session service..
You need to see your doctor ASAP to have these issues addressed please.

I'm a psychologist and do not prescribe. Sounds like you need to walk into a public mental health center and start from the beginning, suggest getting in to see a psychiatric nurse practitioner.
You probably need to be hospitalized at this point.
