I come into an appointment angry because my doctor is a moron. She instantly says I'm manic because I couldn't possibly have a reason for believing that.

I say I'm overmedicated, my labs say the same thing, and she says I'm in a depressive episode. Because there's no such thing as too much Depakote, Zyprexa, Invega, and Propanolol.
