What's this mash about seeing another "GP"? You need a psychiatrist. If you had a broken femur that needed a rod would you let your GP do it? Of course not; although he could try to keep you stabalized until an orthopedic surgeon took over,
he is not qualified to treat you for such a serious injury.
You need a specialist, a good psychiatrist familiar with psychiatric medication and the workings of the mind. Try not to be discouraged by your bad experience with one psychiatrist. Like every other profession - from policemen to cooks - there are some who are not very good and others who are excellent. Even if there aren't many in your area, I would drive a great distance to see a competent psychiatrist. (I would walk a mile for a Camel, haha - oops, dating myself).
Please keep trying.
