This thread is so sad. This is the kind of thing that makes me so upset. To hear how much we go through because we feel like we can't say it. And ya know those Pdocs could make it much easier for us to say it by not assuming based on looks and by actually asking the right questions...more questions.

I have often wondered what the hell I have to do to get people to understand how bad this is

I have dealt with this **** countless times. It is really awkward to have to try convince a doctor that you are really crazy and in crisis. And to beg for more meds. Like seriously

I once told a Pdoc that my anxiety was unbearable. He told me that I didn't look anxious. Um ok. He had a tendency to tell me I was ok. No you're ok. That is what he said all the time.

One time I was trying to tell him how bad I was feeling and he told me no it couldn't be because I "looked real good".

It's called make up you loser!
