your dr. may see things amiss, but have experience with how actually awfull many shrinks and current meds may be. perhaps he has faith you'll 'pull-out' of your spin. the mental health system is easily the most perilous. if an md chops the wrong foot---that's malpractice. if a shrink md 'burns-out' your true self, that's malpractice---but shrinks are near 'untouchable' in court---you have both feet---and they are incredibly dependent on the guy with a salesman case full of new wonder drugs---and although some clients obviously need shrink intervention, even then the resulting harm may not be seen for years, or sometimes only months. but you will have no recourse. the difficulty of litigation against shrinks breeds incompetence---easy to see why. cognitive talk therapy never wasted anyone---if you trust this gp with your physical health, and are ok with that, i'd find a super talk therapist before embarking on the current shrink situation. and use the net to educate yourself---you will find, 'here be monsters'. be carefull. please.
