I had never considered recording my Pdoc appointments. I agree with some of the postings, in that a lot of stuff can get chucked out there that I have trouble remembering it all too. However, my illness has been fairly static for about 2.5 years, so I mostly go to get my refills. For counseling, I recently started seeing a Christian counsellor to help me sort out some life issues. Whereas I generally have not responded well to psychotherapy, this guy's approach is more about personality profiles of you and your family. He is the nature/nurture type of clinician, and has no problem with the need for meds to help people. I take notes, which he sees, so that I can remember some of his suggestions. I see nothing wrong with notes, or tape recordings (as long as your Pdoc knows in advance he will be taped) if they serve the purpose of helping you remember the GOOD stuff that you would like to try. As far as it being a morbid reminder as a post said, I don't concur. Sometimes it can be very helpful to know where we have been so that we can realize where we are now, and what roads we may choose in the future.
