It depends on what pdoc you're going to. I got lucky enough to be near a university medical center with some great psychiatrists. The doctor I went to always spent around an hour with me discussing treatment options and how I was doing. He allowed me to choose my own medications after he made sure I knew about the possibilities, because he knew I'd be more compliant that way. He's one of the best doctors I've had, and I've had more like him.
