I always feel like I'm self-diagnosing and begging for drugs. I've never felt like my doctors believed that I had serious distress or that it would be in my best interest to take medication.

That's probably partly my skewed perception coming into play and partly the truth.

It's not like I think they sit around and think, "I hope she suffers and has a horrible life.". I just feel like they think I like the attention and like trying different medications because I'm interested in healthcare.

They probably think that I'm either weak and will be unsuccessful, or that I can snap out of this and use all my talent and intelligence to be happy and successful. Unfortunately, that's what I've convinced myself of.

I don't even bother telling my doctor about how bad my allergies are because I don't want to add to the list of complaints and drug trials I have.
