Just be prepared to be referred to a psych and it's for the best. I too tried to stay under the radar with my primary doc for as long as I could but he eventually realized I was beyond his level of expertise and that was that. Not all pdocs are bad! Granted many are like you described but I got lucky a few times and got pdocs willing to listent to me and "work with me" on meds. I can't afford some of the meds I have been prescribed, and thankfully my current pdoc understands my need for klonopin and wellbutrin and occasionally seroquel is usually all I need. All dirt cheap and effective. but no cure.
