Hi DE

Thank you for your post.

I don't know what the particular criteria are for this psychiatrist in her choosing pts. However, I did ask my GP (who referred me & knows this dr) what they were & she told me that she doesn't usually see pts who have been seen by other psychiatrists in the same hospital from which she works. I don't completely believe that -- I have read plenty of books & articles whereby actual psychiatrists generally admit to deliberately not taking on certain pts with particular disorders. They find them too difficult to treat & don't want to have to deal w/ them. This is why I feel the way I do. So frustrating.

Take care.
