Your psychiatrist and therapist work for you - not the other way around. If either should fail you, or if you no longer feel comfortable with their decisions/services, then it's time to move on to another who does meet your needs. I just dumped my last psychiatrist three months ago, because I was slipping into a deep depression and after a week's unreturned messages to her office and cell, she had the nerve to call my therapist with the message that "there's nothing I can do for him." I went to my PCP for help and he immediately prescribed medications that facilitated my rapid recovery. I can'y say it often enough, not everyone is responsible or competent in their field. If you suspect something is wrong, then 95% of the time you're right!
