Yesterday I posted that the pdoc prescribe me seroquel 25mg, I took it in slight hesitation as I been on a couple of srri that didn't work for me and the doctor was like you might be bipolar how I reacted with srris like zoloft that made me really angry, he was lets try it with sodium valproate & lovan, boy it sucked.

I quit that doctor, so I gave up for awhile till december I saw new doctor who wasn't going to shove meds in my face tried recommend therapy my new therapist is lovely friendly though I am still in a dark point she and I recommend to go back to the doctor to see if I can find a med for me again, so the GP referred me to the hospital psych and she was little smile and pleasant for a 1 min but once she sat down she nothing but stern and serious to a point it made me uncomfortable I wanted to walk out find another person(which I didn't). She asked how was my sleeping I said 3 - 4 hrs at night, her response kinda offended me saying I had no baby so why should I have been sleeping less? I had no clue I coming for help cause of anxiety and depression possibly bipolar (which I doubt now) but who knows.

She made me sat there watching her type notes for 15 minutes at the end till she let me go to make another appointment the whole thing was very uncomfortable and the person called up from the hospital asked how it went
I said she was very stern and said don't take it personally she is very serious dr but good. The psych doesn't know what to diagnose me yet fair enough but my therapist is saying depression which I feel low all the time. My therapist asked how I went she explained that the psych doesn't seem to have good people skills.

So I am at a loss what to do I normally give people a second chance she could be having a bad day but something feels like red flag to me. I don't know what to do. She recommended me seroquel 25mg I took it last night first time but I don't want to be on it forever I just need peace while I am learning find coping way to deal with anxiety & depression at work & home from therapy.

Again I do sometimes blabber do to I am little stressing about these things I am sorry. I just need advice again please I am learning more to ask for help in these matters :/

There is a very simple thing to judge if therapist of any
sort will be good for us or not,and that is: Do they RESPECT
you,and treat you as an equal human being? If not,they are
looking on us as "less than",and will NOT be good for us. P.S. The one typing for 15 mins,is definitely NOT good for you!

Seems like you go though Doctor s fast, maybe you should give her a second chance.

Yeah I do the ones I went through fast are the ones who are immediately didn't listen. She did listen but didn't help the impression just treating me like a baby factory even though I don't plan to have kids. Second time round I saw her she was caring. I do belive in second chances I had given out to many doctors. Sometimes I prefer to move on if they don't listen or seem to care. I don't need them to be sympathetic about it, I just want someone who listen to help me deal what the hell going on in my head... Lol

Doctors can be so frustrating. Some care and some are talented, others...I wonder what they're doing, being doctors, because they seem so uncaring.

I say give her one more chance and see what happens.
