> Sometimes, I feel like we're not on the same page and we haven't accomplished anything in the last 8+ months of visits.I know exactly how you feel! Except My pdoc and I seem to have been going on like this for like 18-20 months, I wish I had the luxury of going to another pdoc. It is like I know how bad I feel every single day and then I go in and see him and he sees me in what I think he percieves me to be as functioning at a good level- just because my "mood and mannerisms" come across as feeling better than I really do.ie: I don't go in to his office all slouched over-sad, and totally hopeless
*looking* I'm sure he knows that depression can present itself in many ways but I am just not sure he gets how miserable I am!
