So I heard back from my GP this morning and he told me he supports me finding a therapist and a psychiatrist. (I forgot to mention it here last night, but when hubby refused the meeting, I said "then maybe I should just talk to a therapist and a psychiatrist myself, if I'm apparently the one with the problem in this relationship". I don't think he heard me though....and I fear pushback if I say it again. I'll try to work up the courage, but the other issue is finding someone good and I worry about that being more and more difficult when everything is closed down. Sigh! I'm just really struggling lately, but that's ok. I mean, I guess everyone else has their own problems so I'll leave folks alone again.

My GP thought that people only stayed on antipsychotics for a short period of time. Basically, she thought antipsychotics were PRNs that you'd take for like 2 weeks or something.
Anyway, sorry to hear about your struggles finding a psychiatrist. I need a new psychiatrist myself, but I've given up on trying to find one "nowadays." However, I think you should still try to see if your area has some psychiatrists or psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients. It's possible you'll get lucky and find one. You never know until you try.
Also, you're not bothering anyone! No need to feel like you need to leave people alone. We're all struggling together, but it's important that everyone is here for each other.
