I agree that we (patients) have to ask for what they want and that can be very difficult. I'm always afraid of rejection, and it happens more than I'd like. I've been very direct with my psychiatrist about this need, but after several years of seeing him, I don't feel I'm any different to him than any of his other clients. IMO, he probably likes me a whole lot less because I'm so difficult.
When I lost my job last year and had no money, my T said she'd accept whatever my insurance paid (a whopping $30), and my psychiatrist refused to do anything to help me out.
So sorry to hijack the thread, catlady. Not very nice of me.
It's time for me to go, to find a new psychiatrist for meds management only. I know it's time, but it's also so very difficult. He could care less.
This is how getting to the end of your therapy feels like.
