He said that I need to come in on Monday for an appt, so I agreed to the appt. I don't want to go. I don't trust him. But I knew if I didn't agree, he wouldn't talk to me.
I just wanted to talk over the phone, not in person. I'm normally not a very confrontational person, but he crossed the line. WAY crossed the line. I'm not taking an antipsychotic no matter what he says. I'm not going to be brain dead by age 30. Plus, I have work on Monday. I don't have time to waste by going to his appt.
Sorry. Just had to vent.

If you don't want to take an antipsychotic, you absolutely don't have to take an antipsychotic. Even if you're inpatient, you are under no obligation to take medication you don't want to.
With that said, why do you think your doctor is trying to kill you? What possible motivation would he have for personally making you "brain dead by age 30?"
You don't want to take an antipsychotic. That's fine. What's the alternative?
My advice, for what it's worth: Keep the appointment on Monday. Discuss alternatives and perhaps explore the possibility of short term therapy with an antipsychotic? That's what my doctor and I are exploring.
