Dear ariesmars, Try a pdoc [psychiatrist] or change PCP's. Yeah, doctors get that busy. You're gonna be busy if you have 3,000 patients [yes, they should stop taking patients long before that]; if you overbook daily [no, they shouldn't do that]; and if you spend all day Friday on the golf course. Google your doctor's name. They say you can get various reports on doctor's reputation, any malpractice, etc. in such a way [wouldn't know - computer dummy]. You can call your insurance carrier to see how you might proceed to give a report on your doctor's performance. Enough such reports, or a bad enough report, and they won't allow their insurance to cover his visits. This can close a doctor down, if insurance company is big enough. I've seen it happen. Google American Medical Association, try to find a phone # or way to contact them, and ask the same thing. In the meantime, you need sleep meds. If you change doctors, be sure and notify your insurance company. They might even be able to provide names of some other doctors they cover in your area. If you wind up with a med like lunesta, do not take it with food. Wait 2 hours after eating; don't eat for 30-45 minutes after taking. Other sleep meds might have the same tendency. Food slows down the action so much that it's like it doesn't work at all. Like, if it doesn't take effect until 2 or 3 AM, that's very similar to not working at all. In the interim, preoccupy yourself with a book until you stop worrying about sleep. TV works with the preoccupation part, but the light of the TV has the effect of keeping you awake.
