i will ask but my psychiatrist does not take me seriously like at all ☹️. i had a really good one who i was comfortable with and then he moved to the hospital system down the street and my insurance doesn’t cover it. i’m considering just paying out of pocket to see him again. the one i was transferred to like only recommends supplements to take

my primary doctor put me on a specific anxiety medication and my psychiatrist got a little mad about it as if he was attempting to do anything about my mental health problems. i have a brain tumor and he was like “have you tried <long list of supplements> to help your cognitive problems” no actually i think that maybe it’s the tumor in my skull making me stupid but thanks

omg i’m so sorry??? i really hope you get the help you need and i’ve also dealt with psychiatrists not taking me serious. If u believe paying out of pocket would be the best go for it because finding the right medication can actually be life changing but also depending on ur situation finding one that ur insurance covers may be better u might just have to look a bit harder but it might be more worth it

i really do want to find the right medication because what’s especially cruel is that my tumor symptoms are being blamed on mental health. my mental health is bad too but like i don’t know what they want me to do about it given the circumstances. this is the only psychiatrist at this hospital and he sucks so i can’t really change my meds. i’m in therapy. what else could you possibly want me to be doing? i just don’t get it
