I'm just annoyed at how my appointment with the Psychiatrist went today. It's just all these things that build up. I thought she was finally warming up in our last two sessions. Anyway...we crash again!
She bought up the Lithium situation. I'm on Lamotrigine, but basically her trainee offered me Lithium at one point. Psychiatrist said she would never prescribe it, I ask why trainee was allowed to and got no response. Today, when I asked about other options instead of Lamotrigine, she told me Lithium would have only been an option had I not been suicidal and that's how I was when it was mentioned. I found this really disrespectful as trainee had pretty much forced it on me telling me that Psych had advised it...you go round in circles lol!
She also wouldn't listen to me about the sexuality thing. I told her I had been hypomanic, had slept with a female and that this was normal for me as I am gay, but am not promiscuous usually. Anyway, she kept going on about how I was confused as I mentioned wanting to sleep with a man before when hypomanic.
I just...
It's all these small things too. It doesn't help my mood when I go in there thinking ''I'll feel better talking about it'' to just feel worse.
Should I quit services? I feel like avoiding everyone in my care as GP has also annoyed me with her negligence - she gave me 56 tablets even though she knows I've been suicidal on more than one occasion in the past
