Handling your GP is an art form. Luckily, mine understands a little about anti-depressants, but even so, he would not prescribe Ritalin for me unless a pdoc did it first. And my last GP wouldn't prescribe 50 mg of Trazadone to help me sleep until a pdoc did it first.

I tell my GP what I am taking, but I don't ask his opinion about what the pdoc has prescribed. I'm paying the pdoc to do that.

As for the reputation of dexedrine and pain-killers, they're not very dangerous if you take them as prescribed. If you play by the rules, you have a *right* to be treated with the appropriate med, IMHO.
