It's hard for doctors to treat if they don't know what they're treating. However, as with any medical treatment, one should evaluate treatment for one's self. If your meds don't work, they're not the right treatment!

Do you have a therapist? Having someone to discuss what's going on in your life, your medical treatment and how you're getting on with others can be very helpful to one's treatment. When I was ill for a year, non-mental illness, I was really grateful I had my therapist to sort things out with. It's stressful being ill, not matter what one's illness is. Having someone to talk to and help get one's head clear about the illness and life in general was very helpful for me.
