Aw well, the old kiss a lot of frogs to find a prince applies in doctors of all sorts too.

And sometimes the ones with the most shiny degrees aren't the ones that are the best for us.

Keep trying. There are good pdocs out there. This obviously wasn't the right one for you. Generally an initial interview for a psychiatrist who is prescribing for you runs 90 minutes in my experience, and they take every minute. Then they do those brief (about 5 minutes for my doc) med checks every few months once they're happy with your meds. But even my super-speedy pdoc had a long initial session.

You'll know when one feels right. Look at how well you did figuring out that one felt wrong!! I went to the pdoc from h*ll for several years before figuring that out.
