My current psych nurse likes to start with my mood stabilizer & get that right before she starts adding in things. She did give me something for sleeping previously, though sleeping pills never work for me. More recently I was able to plead my case for a prn fast acting anxiety med, which I was given & thankfully actually lets me put my brain to sleep on those nights it starts spinning out of control, yay.
But other places I have been did start me on multiple meds.
IMHO, if she's hateful find someone else if you can. Having a good rapport with your psych/therapist is so important. I have had some with & some without, & when it clicks it makes a world of difference. Even if I am still a crappy patient
