Maybe you can at least start searching for another one?

Doctors generally can be quite condescending, I find (of course not all), clinging to much to their feelings of authority and rational superiority. Psychiatrists are the worst, because they are really considered second-rate doctors by many of their peers.

Just something that now popped into my mind: maybe you can start taking a low dose (which of course you would) and feign severe, untraceable side-effects. Migraines maybe.

It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
