So I saw my pdoc last Tuesday. I am just really frustrated with her. She basically tells me that I'm not a "case" and that I don't need to see a pdoc since I only need one medication. And then she tells me to take it as a compliment. Just because I'm an "easy" case doesn't mean that I don't deserve treatment. She did say I still need therapy though. I don't know. Maybe I'm more upset about this than I should be? I just asked if I could get a referral to a new pdoc as I'm turning 18 soon and then she said no, so I don't know. I guess it does make sense that since I probably will be on this medication for a while that I wouldn't need to see one. I just wanted to get "new" psychological testing once I'm 18 in terms of MI and stuff. I haven't been officially evaluated since I was 14... This pdoc did her evaluation untraditionally and says that she doesn't believe in labels, but how can you know a treatment plan without labels? Labels = treatment, at least in our current society.

Rant over.
