Hmm that's an interesting question. My initial impulse would be to read them since I am a curious person.
However, I don't think I would actually go through with it since I believe that information should stay private ( I sort of think of it as the doctor's diary). Honestly, if the doctor and I had a good relationship and I was making progress, I wouldn't give a rip what he wrote about me. Everyone analyzes people in different ways. If the psychiatrist ways good, I would have no desire to read his notes.
If the doctor rubbed me in the wrong way, then I would read his notes simply as an effort to validate my negative feelings of him.
