Question ? Lawyer trouble ? And workman’s comp ! Help ! Any advice

NSFWSpoiler

So , long story short have a lawyer representing me they have been so slack from my observation , I have a really hurt hand and also I’ve been having symptoms of terrible terrible ptsd the last few weeks !! I originally was sent to one dr the first one who diagnosed my hand he told me at that time I would need a specialist for the mental Struggling and that they would have refer me , so I had name ready basically I was informed that i had to wait !! For a list of approved drs from the workmen’s comp . And all waited over a week and half for that to get faxed to my attorney and Finally I think I’m in the clear ! It’s been over a week now and and my lawyer keeps giving me the run around stating they are investigating all the drs !!! What!!!!! I get 24 hrs maybe it’s been over a week and I’m waiting and waiting !! I have gotten on phone I must have asked them 4 /5 times every single day do you have a dr please o can go get some attention ? I need to get some help medically but don’t wanna mess my case up ! I don’t understand why and how I’m this step in the prpssess any lawyer would not work to pick a dr. As quickly as possible considering I have been explaining Every day how bad I am and how I need help now ! I am wondering is this normal practice for do this ? I shored them for god sake you would think if anything they would have some urgency wth this part to start helping me get back myself to a place I was before ! If anything I feel like I need a shrink !! And I haven’t slept in weeks I’m a hot mess from this and my lawyer is to me making this so much harder for me not helping me , I need a lawyer in Georgia area !! I need a really good lawyer I have never had a layer for this type thing but I feel like every thing is off wth this experience ! I’m the person that is a victim and I was hurt because of equipment on the job malfunctioned causing this problem to start with ! Last thing I need is a lawyer is not doing there job to best of ability ! I also had to find out that I only have $675 cap for weekly checks from them !!So so messed up !! I make ruffly $5000 a month with my job to pay all my bills !!im only getting half of my typical pay this is so messed up ! I wasn’taware of this part either layer never said nothing !! I always assumed I received 66% of pay that’s still not great barely enouph to not loose every thing I own ! I started receiving my fist check to my surprise I thought it was a typo !! Nope my lawyer didn’t say this was what was gonna be a Possoblity as far as income ! It’s not there fault but that’s there job is to inform me of everything I need to know ! I now have to go back to work maybe restricted but there’s no way humanly I will be able to keep my home cars and all my other bills ! It’s not even close ! I don’t have a choice I don’t wanna hurt the claim but it’s either way I am screwed ! How is this possible ? I’m sos frustrated ! And I’m not in state where my lawyer is because the accident happened in l Georgia I have tours one I that state . What should I do I am lost anyone have any GREAT!! Wonderful personal injury lawyers ? I can’t get to specialist to get full diagnosed of what’s wrong wth me physically and mentally ! Because lawyer just won’t give me a darn dr to see ! The sooner I get thos medically diagnosed the sooner I can jus get better . I also don’t no of it looks Bad to the workmans comp commission that I still have yet to get seen buy there own drs ! Yet being given the list of approved drs they approve me to see! I can’t call workmans comp commission now because they won’t talk to me now th have legal representation . I can’t even get the list myself ! Who ever heard of such crazy case!!
