My GP, and other doctors listen to me. Which is really comforting.

My T, on the other hand, as wonderful as she is (I got a new one after my old one decided to cut my meds and let me withdrawal without any warning) has this idea that if I suddenly "think" and make myself "believe" I am feeling better, I will feel better. Which in my mind is simply a case of wishful thinking. I cannot "think" my chronic illnesses feel better and have them absolve themselves, so why does this way of thinking at all connect to mental illness? When I say I am not doing better she does her best to be supportive but it seems like not much changes. It's frustrating. And between that and seeing up to 4 doctors a week; it's safe to say I am really getting to the end of my rope really fast.
