My psychiatrist hasn't had time to review my records and was surprised to see me so soon (30 days since last visit so she could request my records AGAIN & review them prior to visit). I presented appointment printout from previous visit to show her SHE scheduled the visit on Jan 29, 2018. WTF?

First question I have for her is "what's the personality disorder we 'addressed' during my Jan 29 office visit"???? Oh, it's Cluster B personality disorders, you can look it up. I saw her originally on Oct 2 after 6 appointment changes over an 8 month period. Jan 29, 2018 was only my 2 visit with her and she is DX me with a personality disorder after less than an hour. But wait, she hasn't had time to review my records because "they're about 100 pages". She did peruse my pharmacogenomic test results, but for some reason has ignored the "significant" impact the absence of a gene has on most of the Rx I have tried. She chose instead to mention that my issue is only "moderate".

A bad psychiatrist/psychologist is WORSE than none at all. Psychiatrist are paid to dispense as many drugs as they can. There are good ones out there who want to help their patients. These are a dying breed, unfortunately. I have had some who did have a god complex and they do more harm than good.

It feels like we are living in a time when mental illness is becoming a silent killer as a direct result of the stigma surrounding the legitimacy of this illness. Why o why? Because acceptance, compassion, empathy and support are vanishing from our society? Maybe I don't want to keep fighting this fight. What's the point? I'm tired and I'm getting weaker every time I pick myself back up.
