[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 190897, member: 1233"] I would be royally ****** off if a doctor told me that checking for substance and alcohol abuse records was "standard". MANY people see docs that don't check for this stuff. I think giving him one more try is probably worthwhile. It will give you an idea whether or not he is going to continue to patronize you and mistrust you and treat you like an idiot if you continue therapy with him. I HATE it when the therapist patronizes you. But STar has some very good points. One of the things therapy is for is to help you deal with your emotions. And this doctor can obviously trigger strong emotions in you, so maybe he could help you deal with them. But maybe not. Is it possible for you to make an appointment with a different therapist? I would keep one more appointment with this male therapist, but would have an appointment with another one set up. You can cancel the appointment iwth the other therapist if you decide to stay with the male one. I am sorry he was such a jerk. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
