I can relate except that I haven't been seeing this doctor for 13 years! So there's not much of a relationship. Only have met him 4 times, a primary care doctor. But last visit, when I went begging for him to continue an SSRI prescribed by the crisis centre for severe depression, he told me a joke about suicide. I was so shocked. I don't have many options, being uninsured & unemployed, but I don't wish to see this doctor again. Easier for me since there's no previous relationship there. I understand that we all say stupid stuff, not thinking, not knowing other people's sensitivities etc. Just have to accept that. I appear insensitive, too on occasion. But I can also practically try to switch to another dr., if that's possible.
