I do have such a psychiatrist. Granted, he still calls our appointments 'med checks'.. even though they're an hour long and every week. (Though I have recently 'graduated' to a phone check in one week and a live appointment the next week) But he helps me with analyzing what makes me feel better/worse and as such find coping strategies. And he's stresses that there are other options even though nothing is lifting/has lifted my depression as of yet. He surpasses my T in the 'giving 'hope'' department.

I'm truly blessed to have him as my pdoc.
