I think I may be somewhere in the middle- between pdocs I have seen a couple of Internists who have both been very responsive with meds and willing to make a couple of calls to make sure they were safely prescribing. But because of the complexity of my disorders they were not comfortable (nor did I want them to) in being my primary psychotropic med prescriber. One still is definitely part of my mental health team, along with my shrink and therapist. I think for less complex cases- like a slight to moderate depression or uncomplicated anxiety case- a general practitioner is fine. take care, judy
