> Hmm sounds good to me. But unfortunately now my doctor is being less trustworthy (of course I've been off my AD for over a week waiting for MAOI).. isn't that how they always do it. Take you off a med to try another, then you feel insanely depressed and they see you again and wonder if giving you an MAOI is a legal risk because it's dangerous if OD'd. When will doctors realize that a psychotropic medicine withdrawal will make you act differently? Quite frustrating. It's actually part of any entirely larger complexity in my opinion. The patient can earn a doctor's trust while on treatment, but for me and all others I know who take meds, I can't really convince anyone of anything when I feel like that. I don't have the drive to put forth the effort, and it just becomes frustrating to deal with a doctor that doesn't understand how much you already know about medicine. But for now, I'm on free care so I can't complain... except on here of course :)
