At 25, yes, you are entitled to not have your parents make decisions for you provided that you are mentally competent. The person that is your go between is your t. She can really have a great input in this situation.
It is very understandable for you to be upset. How can this psychiatrist justify this recommendation? Is it that you weren't compliant with your previous med treatments? Did you use meds to try to commit suicide? (I don't know your hx, so I am trying to see why the MD is suggesting this.) Is that you are commenting now you are suicidal? What's the justification for such a demand?
I don't think this should come down to a termination. If she is really trying to help you, how would you getting terminated help yur current condition? If anything, it would really aggravate your situation.
