My T told me on Monday that pdoc feels that he's having too much interactions with me.

But the Friday before when I spoke with him - he said he needed more outside of our 20 mins to figure out my personality or what's causing my depression. He also told me to page him for any crisis when before he'd just passed me along to my T.

There has been a lot of misunderstandings between me and pdoc. He called, argued, then hung up on me cuz I was asking for DNR forms then he refused to see me for being 10 mins late. T has been mediating both of us. But when he called on Fri to apologize for refusing to see me... I felt grounded with our relationship. We had a great convo and resolved some issues. So... now I'm confused.

My T suggested the possibility of seeing another pdoc. And I'm like... well I'm open but not right now. Technically he can drop me as a patient at any time, right? So... why is this MY decision?!?

I'm hearing one thing from pdoc and another from T. I've called maybe 3-4x asking about meds effect, info on voluntary hosp, and referrals for another T. T and I don't feel that my Qs are necessarily outside of the boundaries. He just feels that he's getting too involved in my therapy. The guy thinks I'm a looney toon - isn't his job to get involved and find out what's wrong w. me?!??

Anyway, I'm supposed to see him on Tues. I don't know what to expect. So can someone tell me what is going on?!?

If this was me I would schedule a meeting where BOTH psychiatrist and therapist are present and the three of us sit down and put in writing the treatment plans for me - who I call for what and when, how often I see each of them and so on. That way both Psychiatrist and therapist are working on the same treatment plans and goals with me.

I have done this on more than one occasion and it works wonders for miscommunication between two treatment professionals.

Since this seems to be an ongoing problem with the psychiatrist and therapist maybe its time to try this approach.
