Garnet, what an incredibly honest moment you had with your pdoc! That does explain a helluva lot, and it's refreshing that he loosened the I'm-the-psychiatrist-you're-the-patient bind for a moment to just be real. Weird how good things can so often come out of the bad.
Do you know, this is funny. You love Indian docs. I'm finding I love South American docs. All but one of my caucasian pdocs have been too uptight, too unwilling to listen to the phenomenological experience of the patient. I had this one pdoc while in a partial program that I wanted, so badly, to have as an outpatient, but alas she is only inpatient. She would say stuff like this medical treatment is "bull--it" or the original (horrible) place I was inpatient is "totally f---ed up" and she "refused" to ever work there. Ha!!! Loved her.
I hope things go well with your new pdoc. Let us know!!! I'm dying to hear what new gold this alchemist will bring you.
