And just so you have a good understanding of psychosis.


Kati's youtube channel has a wealth of information.

I'm curious how many times you have seen your psychiatrist before he diagnosed you, and if you have therapeutic sessions with the pdoc or if they just do meds. Where I go the pdocs do meds only except for the first session where they question your history and symptoms. You could probably benefit from seeing a therapist too, and it would give you two points of view about your diagnosis.
Been going to the nurse practitioner in the office for over a year and tried nearly 30 medicines no joke. I've always been in the system so to speak but i didn't start going back to medication until about a year ago when I was suicidal. Before that i had been on Zoloft for basically all of highschool so i was constantly seeing a NP and I would occasionally see a psychiatrist. After highschool I went to a few psychiatrists before this guy for like 3 visits and then I'd drop them. Personally with this guy I've only talked to him once before, but he has a lot of history on me from my past and from the NP in the office.
