Asshat for sure. I hope Abilify helps you, it is pretty much a standard bp med. it made me worse I was even more ancy irritable and suicidal when on it. This guy may have some malpractice history and is gun shy or he has concerns about these meds are intense. Could be a lot of things, many docs don't dx bp til they see you for years. Idk but sounds horribly frustrating
