"On the very day that the Supreme Court issued the Obergefell decision making marriage equality the constitutional law of the land, I spent part of my day in a doctor's office just across the river in Arlington, Va. As my colleagues celebrated the major victory for LGBTQ rights in front of the Supreme Court that hot and humid Washington day, I was looking for a new psychiatrist. I had moved to the D.C. area six months before for a new job, and had been looking for someone who could simply continue and maintain the work of her three predecessors (across multiple states) in regard to my ongoing treatment for bipolar disorder. The process is straightforward and generally results in the continuation of treatment and medication."
