I told 2 of the mental health nurses about it, the first time I had an auditory hallucination was when I stopped lithium, they both said to restart it asap before I was able to get into a pdoc, I didn't & it was ok.
I am reluctant to come out and say this, that unless he gives you a good explaination for dismissing it, then I would encourage you to find another pdoc. But I would keep the last part to yourself. Sometimes I find that I need to hold my pdoc accountable for his actions. This would be one ocassion that I would do this. Doing so may be all you need to do to get his attention. At the very least it can lead to a more productive conversation.
