> Several of my psychiatrists have told me they believe my inability to tolerate medications has a psychological rather than a physiological basis. The rest just made comments that insinuated that that was what they believed.

You are not alone in this. Monday I went to yet another doctor who started me on yet another medication, discounting what the other doctors have said. The only encouraging thing about this new one is that he said to start at a really small dosage because of side-effects. Don't take it personally. I too will not go near a psychiatrist. Though my options here are limited to only one.

> That attitude does wonders for the treatment relationship.

And they've had schooling? I agree with you. I guess no amount of education can teach empathy, unless they've really walked a mile in our shoes, though I wouldn't wish that on anyone but maybe a psychiatrist!
