My psychologist just completed a program that allows him to prescribe, although it's only allowed in a handful of states, and not the one we currently live in. Yes, he does sometimes bring up medications and has encouraged me to talk to my doctor about getting back on an AD. While I appreciate the schooling he went through and know that he knows what he's talking about, part of me wishes he wouldn't try to act like a prescriber with me. When he first started his program, he was going to move out of state and end our relationship and I took it very hard. This all happened in 2020 and they kept allowing distance learning and the date for his leaving kept changing and I never knew when he was going to actually leave. It was awful not knowing if or when this person who was my literal lifeline was going to end our relationship. So I get a little resentful when he brings up meds with me. I'm not sure if he realizes this or not. I should probably work on not being that way about it. He's still here, by the way. Graduated, possibly taking an exam soon, although he hasn't mentioned it in a while. He signed a two-year lease on a new office, so I honestly have no idea what his long-term plans are and I'm trying to not be so vigilant about it. I do worry, however, that I have let my guard down too much and I'm going to get crushed again someday.
