I'm so sorry to read this Monticello. Are you referring to leaving the depression forum or PC in general?
There should not be ANY bashing of any sort on a forum which is designed to support people. That includes doctors. Doctors are people too. I work in healthcare and I've had plenty of wonderful MDs as my colleagues. I am perplexed as to why doctor-bashing is considered okay on PC. Folks with mental health problems need to be able to consult with their doctors. Sending out messages that all doctors are bad and untrustworthy is not okay and actually dangerous.
I don't know what else to say. I too am shocked by the level of anger and bitterness which is flagrantly displayed by some (not all) on PC.
If I can be of any support, please let me know Monticello. Please know that many of us, including me, are grateful for the care we have received from great MDs. I believe that PC would be better with you here. The PC and non-PC worlds are lucky to have caring physicians like yourself.
