[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 359846, member: 1233"] I think this doctor you are seeing is just a therapist - psychologist or licensed social worker. NOT a medical doctor. She sounds like an ill-informed idjit and I would find someone else before I spent another penny on her. You need someone you can work with. I took a lot of psychiatric classes in college. Only one had a prof that wasn't nuts. One psychiatric prof didn't recognize me when he came into a used bookstore I ran. He had all sorts of totally inappropriate questions and on one visit he FLASHED me! In those days I was studying photography and always had a camera at hand. I grabbed a photo and then told him to wait. I wrote my name, student ID and the time of the class I had him for. I told him he either gave me an A without me coming to class again or I would show the photo to the police and the president of the university (who was a neighbor). I was 16 at the time. Not the most honorable thing for me to do, but he was using the book I used in high school for psychology and mostly all he did was draw cartoons on the chalkboard. Ones that had NOTHING to do with anything. I would do it differently today, but I WAS 16 at the time. Now psychology students are required to spend more time in therapy to get any degree past a bachelors. This is because everyone has baggage and it is hard to treat someone else's baggage until you have coped with your own. Your "doctor" has too much of her own baggage. She is also an idiot. There are a lot of them out there. We had the best luck of all docs with our dev pediatrician. He is the one that Shari's Weegfg is seeing and he is AWESOME. The only reason we changed was because our insurance changed. Find someone who will work with you and not pretend to be the "boss" of you. This one is too insecure to be effective. [/QUOTE]
