GPs are very quick to dismiss any physical signs or symptoms, if I present something as linked to my depression he will say it might be the meds, if I link something to the meds he will say maybe its the depression. If I have something that doesn't seem to be related to either he treats it as somatic lol. Yet at every appointment he asks "Is there anything else I can do for you today". If something is bothering me that is not depression I try and see a different doc, luckily I'm in a big practice and there's plenty of choice.
I'm seeing my GP this afternoon, for a "holding visit" in other words I've no other psych support and he thinks I need a weekly check in - fair enough.
Tomorrow, I have a telephone assessment for IAPT, I'm not looking forward to that, I don't have a good track record with therapy.
Sorry I've rambled on about me. Hope you are able to relax a little now your appointment is out of the way. Hope the increase in Mirtazapine helps (how do you get on with that med by the way? I've not tried it and my GP keeps talking about combining it with my Cymbalta, don't fancy it myself but meds always sound bad).
