I saw my psychiatrist today the only good news i got out of the session is i went from 174 lbs to 164 lbs from loss of appetite due to the topamax.i don't want to eat and be fat so that is a good thing. She says my depression is not improving cause ive tried to hurt myself several times since are last visit. she askes me if i want to hurt myself now i tell her no i lie.she ask if i am anxious i tell her yes she says about what?i say i don't know. she says what do you look forward to i say Christmas partly true .she says she wants to help me and even managed to tell her the meds make me sick but i could not tell her im beyond help at this point. Basically the appointment had no value to me except i lost weight

Hello passionfruit3: Yes... this scenario sounds familiar. I'm no longer on med's. I was, however, still seeing my pdoc because he is my last remaining connection to the mental health system where I live. But at my last appointment, just recently, I told him I wasn't planning to return. It just seems pointless in my case. I guess if I do go back within a year, they won't have to do a new Intake which they would have to do if I returned after a full year had expired. So I may go back in just prior to the end of a year from my last appointment. But otherwise, for me, it just seems pointless. Similarly to what you wrote, I always seem to end up only telling half the story. But then, to some extent, that makes sense. How much can you say in 10 minutes?
