B2chica:
I don't like this p-doc already. It's your body, and they're your symptoms, and he only knows you from little 10 or 15 minute interactions, right? That ticks me off to no end when psychiatrists become completely authoritarian telling me that I can take this drug and I cannot take this other drug. I think that if you feel ready to start the MAOI, then he should be there for you, supportive, listening to your worries, but supporting your choice. I understand what you're saying about the invalidation of feelings, too. If a person in a position of authority invalidates my feelings, I also clam up (a symptom of my GAD and depression, I'm sure). I hope you can work this out, either with Mr. Jockularity, or with another p-doc. You deserve better.
