Have you ever asked your pdoc for meds? How did you go about doing it?

I asked for Lithium (the jury is still out on that decision). I asked my new PDoc after my PDoc that left the practice told me that it was going to be his last choice before hospitalization. I felt kinda weird asking but I trusted my old PDoc and I did not want to go to the hospital. The new PDoc told me that she had something else in mind prior to me asking but if I did not mind the constant blood work then she thought it was a good idea. When it comes to questions like that, I feel like they will hopefully guide me in the right direction.
I hope this is not too confusing.
