[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 272826, member: 1514"] What really really ticked me off was the fact that she ASSUMED that because I used big words that it meant that I researched things and not that I was just well educated. I think I somewhat intimidated her with my knowledge of psychology and psychiatry. Im sorry, if I have a disease or a disorder I am going to do my own research and know as much as I can about it. I am not going to on blind faith from any doctor about my illness or disorder. I dont think it is wise. I think an informed patient is a good patient. It is my body and my health after all. Does it really matter if I understand what medical terminology means? I mean she didnt like it when I referred to "hypomanic states" or even worse...ultra-radian cycling. Never mind I have been bipolar for years...lol. I am not stupid and I have had conversations with a psychiatrist or two in my life. Ya think some of my symptoms just may have come up a time or two? Ugh. [/QUOTE]
