It's so stupid. I hate my psychiatrist too. He doesn't understand that the 80 mg Latuda actually helped and he put my Latuda down at 40 mg, from 60 mg, when I was at 80 mg before. It is actually ridiculous. I always seem to have conflicts with psychiatrists, but this one is worse. I don't know. Switch psychiatrists maybe?
Also the psychiatrist put me on meds that I believe are useless such as Gabapentin, he didn't follow the advice put forth by my psychiatrist in the U.S. going forward, nor did he even ASK me a single thing about my history or anything related to the subject about my U.S. psychiatrist and what he wanted me to do, but rather this psychiatrist who thought he knew what he was doing down here immediately put me on Abilify, a med I had gotten off of, which immediately started to jack up my anxiety, then added Gabapentin, to ameliorate said anxiety, and then added modafinil, I'm not sure why, then started to mess with my doses of mirtazapine and lurasidone, which had been steady for some time. Anyway, I really don't like my psychiatrist down here. He is not helping me at all.
