It sounds like England. We don't have many pdocs, and each one has a lot of patients. Even psychotic patients don't get seen that often.


> You're so right!!! The problem is not the meds themself, well not all the meds... some of them are very bad... but the main problem it's the time it takes to see a PDoc, sometimes more than 1 year, so your anxiety/depression or any other psychological disorder get worse because it's untreated for that whole year...

> Also, sometimes you fall on a PDoc that you don't like or seem to don't care about you and if you complaim and ask to see another one it's really complicated so you keep the same and feel not well understand and hopeless...
>
> Most of the PDoc don't take more than 30 minutes for 1 appointment, they just talk about meds and if all the meds fail, they don't know what to do and they say stupid thing like start practicing yoga...or relaxation... that's not the kind of help a patient need...
>
> The fact that the PDoc or free Psychologist don't take time to listen to you is also a big problem... if you complaim about physical pain, as well as weird anxiety symptoms, they told you that you only need reassurance, and that it's not their job to do reassurance with you...
>
> Same for the free Psychologist, they don't take the time to listen to you because they will see you only 12 times for about 45 minutes... The waiting list is long and they let you know that you are not alone to need help and make you feel not compliant to their therapy... and most of the time they rush the CBT therapy and they are agressive in a way, since they put pressure on you to do exposure to your fears at week 1, even if you are not ready and need to understand why you feel so anxious, why you have so many weird symptoms and what kind of bad emotions hide behind those weird anxiety symptoms... no wonder why CBT fail most of the time on a lot of peoples... I think the patient need to talk first, they need to talk weekly about the symptoms they have, how they feel, talk about their emotions... If the Psychologist only talk about your bad thoughs who need to be change in good thoughs and they put pressure on you do to agressive exposure to fears, it will not work for sure...
>
> So that's hard to not feel frustrated when you face that kind of problems... I don't think it's like that in all the Canada... but for the Quebec province that's bad...we need more PDoc and Family Doc also... that's another problem... no wonder why they go work outside the Canada...anyway...
