I suppose it's just that every doctor I've had has made me feel guilty for asking for more than the "5 mins in the room, quick prescription and away" formula. I think there is still a culture of not taking depression really seriously (I once saw a doc while I was at uni and cried in her office because I couldn't make myself get out of bed or do any work, and she told me "There are two trains... the emotional and the logical... you have to get off the first and on to the second..." and sent me away without medication. I am only just starting to demand a bit more and I find it very hard. Anyway, thanks to everyone for the advice. AL
