I couldn't agree more Q! And don't forget we have our own p-nurse here on babble, Philipa! Who's great too.
Actually, me and my pdoc seem to have bonded quite well. We both agreed that I don't actually need medication - what I mean is, although I may have OCD, depression, anxiety etc, its all in my head literally - meaning I don't have any physiological defects, its just my faulty thinking. She agreed that the biological school of depression is very powerful and um, sometimes its forgotten that depression isn't always from having faulty biology. Anyway. I thought that was quite refreshing. Actually the whole attidude to mental health here in Finland is very freshing. I'm going to get 2 years of twice weekly psychotherapy FOR FREE! All on the state healthcare system. That is pretty amazing. Anyway I'm rambling on, and I have an exam in oh an hour and a half....
