He was like that a little the first appointment, but I chalked it up to his tactic to try to see if I was faking it or something. Like for example I would tell him sometimes I will wake up at 3 in the morning with a lot of "chatter" going on in my head. And sometimes I'm so amped that I have to physically pace the house. Then he'd turn it around a few minutes later and say something like "but you haven't had any issues sleeping or anything, right?"

Um... yes... I just told you I did... did you not listen???

In this appointment I really tried to only talk about symptoms I've had in the last two weeks. But when I told him how amazingly paranoid I was or how I had such a hard time on Friday that I just couldn't think straight or walk in a straight line... he just really didn't care. I even went into some of my "husband is cheating on me" paranoia and he puts his hands up and is like "ohhh I can't help you with that kind of thing. Ok sure... you're not a therapist... I get it dude... but give me a ****ing break.

He upped my Lamictal to 100mg and set up another appointment for 4 weeks from now. I AM going to start keeping a list, this is a great idea.

Once I get my meds sorted out I think I might started looking for a new pdoc. :-( Shame because I've been working on this whole process since mid January. I'm just so frustrated.
