I can completely relate to the frustration of hearing "let's give this a try". Really? I've had several pdocs over the years and they were all different in their approaches. I even stopped all treatment for several years. I think things were ok for a while and when things started to go bad, I still convinced myself I was ok and "operating within normal parameters". Now I'm back in treatment and I have a new pdoc. She actually doesn't want to start me on more than one med at a time and she says she wants my feedback on what works, ask questions, etc.

Some of my past pdocs were not interested in listening to me. I had the option to move on eventually. I know some people don't have that option. If yours isn't receptive to your concerns and questions I guess I would suggest a different pdoc if you have that option over stopping meds. Just my opinion based on my experience.

Hope things start getting better for you soon. The med rollercoaster can be worse than the illness sometimes.
