Because I Like My Doctor Too Much
3 years ago
I like my doctor, he’s a great doctor, he gives a crap about my mental health. I could get well just having him in my corner. But, that’s the problem.
I like him so much I don’t visit his office when I need to. I feel like I’m making his life more difficult when a medication doesn’t work, so instead of going back after the medication runs out I just stop going.
So, as I see it, since persons with a mental illness are known to dislike their psychiatrists… If I get myself one I dislike, when the medication doesn’t work I won’t feel bad for making him do more work for me. All I want the psychiatrist for is to get myself on a working medication. And that’s all he wants to do with me.
Makes sense right?
