find a new doctor

I had my appointment with the new doctor a two weeks ago and I loved him. My next appointment is next week. I am so happy with the changes he made to my medications. The main reason I wanted a new doctor, and this one in particular is because I wanted to get the medications I’m on reevaluated because I just wasn’t comfortable with the amount I was on, and it’s been greatly reduced, and I’m feeling great about it! Completely worth doing! And now I wont have to deal with my old doctor… This one actually cares about me and talks to me and asks questions, I feel I can grow a lot working with him. A lot of thanks to my therapist for referring me.

I did email my therapist, and she recommended a doctor right away, and said she’d send him a fax and told me to tell the receptionist that she referred me. So I did so, and now I have an appointment with him next week! Very happy about this.

I have finally become fed up enough to do something about this. I’ve been seeing this psychiatrist for four years, since I was seventeen, since he was the only local one that would see non-adults at that time. But I have never been satisfied with him, and since I’m an adult now I have more options open to me.

I especially want the medications I’m on to be reevaluated, since I do not trust my current doctor’s judgment. Hopefully I can find someone more reliable and who I feel comfortable talking to and can put my faith in.

To get started I am going to email my therapist right now to ask for suggestions.
