I noticed my chart said I wasn't depressed when I clearly said I've suffered from depression for years, to the nurse.  I even teared up when asked because it's a hard question for me.  She didnt notice the tears because i kept wiping them away.  I expressed it to my doctor last year.  There was no offer of a list of in network therapist or a suggestion for any at all.  I also mentioned about my knees being arthritic and there was no further conversation about how to deal with that or how to move forward in excercising.  Maybe I'm assuming it's arthritis and it's something else.  Ive never been diagnosed with it.    I don't feel like I was completely seen or heard, in those moments.  It seems to be an ongoing thing when it comes to the care of Black women.   When we finally open up and say that something is wrong with us, we want to be heard.  And neither of those things were addressed in my chart when I checked.
