I don't have a problem with researching meds and do it quite a bit (I'm a part time medical librarian). The problem is there is no opportunity for research. It's not, "Here are your options, give it some thought and come back in a week." It's, "You can try this, this, this, this or this. Which do you want to try?" I'm not going to choose a drug without having all of the facts. When I start asking questions or tell her that I need to read up on them she gets annoyed. The last time I said I would have to read up on them and let her know I was lectured about noncompliance. I ended up on Geodon because I asked about it. She wanted to add on another mood stabilizer, gave me a list of possible drugs and wanted me to choose right then. When I wouldn't she wanted to do lithium, which I've been on before and had zero response to. She was pissed by the time I left because I wouldn't blindly choose a med.
