I tried a new pdoc, and I was fired yesterday during our second session! Now I'm out hundreds and back at square one needing to find a new doctor and schedule an appointment. I was so shocked because, nothing like this has ever happened to me before, I think I'm a very reasonable nice person, I had kind of even imagined myself being the absolute easiest patient to treat ever. Even after being fired I was nice and paid and left, going into total robot mode. The only good side effect is I feel enraged now after the fact, and it is so nice to feel anger again instead of my depression.
This doc wanted me to try to treat my lifelong issues with a gluten free diet, as if eating a different hamburger bun will assuage my suicidal feelings! Then he told me the meds I've been prescribed in the past would fry my brain and basically turn me into a vegetable. Wow. I thought I had obsessive worries about taking meds before! Has anyone ever been fired like this, not prescribed medicine (which was the entire point of my visit) and still charged for their session? I feel violated.
