No, I'm not referring to how they don't giving out psychotropics, I'm referring to how they act more vigilantly than some Scientologists I know in trying to convince me to stop taking what my p-doc put me on.
My last GP said I should stop taking "so many meds" with just a vague notion that I have anxiety and no idea to what extent I have of it (not that he asked).
And after something else happened, he goes, "look, I'm not concerned about your social problems, only your physical problems." W!?!? I never even mentioned I had social anxiety, just anxiety... and I am fine socially. Geez. I think it's obvious -some- doctors end up getting an inferiority complex towards psychs because of a psych's specialized training and how their specialty is increasingly more relevant as more people address their mental health.
And after you read of what I'm taking, I'm sure a lot of you will laugh after comparing my puny list to yours:
Adderall 20mg, 2x/day
Effexor 225mg/day
Evoxac 30mg 3x/day (dry mouth pill)
Klonopin .5mg/day PRN (15 pills every year
basically)Then I go, "but I don't do drugs." Then he goes "well, no illegal drugs, but you're still doing drugs." I think a Scientologist would hold back on saying that one, lol
