At the beginning of this year I fell into paranoid psychosis, mainly having strong delusions. Due to this I could not trust my pdoc (or any other mental health professionals even though I had developed deep trust with them). Being in hospital was terrifying as I thought my pdoc was manipulative and controlling, and was basically out to kill me. It felt so real.

When the meds kicked in all trust was restored. In fact I trust my pdoc even more now having seen the lengths he went to to save me, and the real compassion he demonstrated.

Blue, listen to the advice given on this tread. There are great pdoc’s and mental health professionals that will be able to help you. There are definitely some not worth trusting. Oh, how I have learnt that.

Despite that, have hope Blue that there are pdoc ‘s out there who you can trust. Maybe it’s the one you are seeing. Tell them all and watch their response. If it sucks then see another.
