I was diagnosed bipolar 2 and a psychotic disorder maybe... four years ago? After being referred to a psychiatrist. I’ve been stable and in the care of my family doctor to prescribe medication and for regular management. When he doesn’t know what to do, he refers me to the psychiatrist. I’m in Canada I can’t privately go by myself to a psychiatrist I have to referred to and all they really do is give diagnosis and give recommendations to my family doctor for treatment.
