I trusted those who treated me. Maybe I would of benefited from a disclosure telling me that a placebo may work as well or better than a prescribed medication; or that treating symptoms is not a cure; or that there are advantages for those who work closely with pharmaceuticals?
I have huge problem with "trust your doctor" thing. Many pdoca are like "here's your script, next!" Trust a person that sees me for a short time as opposed to trust myself, because I lived with myself the whole time? Why?
I want to learn to better understand myself... but will a "professional" give that to me? I am not sure. They don't know me. I am bad at expressing my thoughts and feelings. What if they misinterpret me? Where would that lead me?
