In reply to Re: Can a psych tell if you are filling prescrips?, posted by woolav on August 4, 2004, at 7:31:03
i don't think they know if you go to an outside pharmacy (not affiliated with your doctor's hospital or clinic---and prolly not even then) i don't know for sure, but it doesn't seem reasonable that a pharmacy would have the time or desire or technological capacity to contact or respond to your doctor, even in writing...or that your docs office would have the time or capacity to recieve or request the information.
but why not just tell your shrink you disagree and you havent and don't plan on filling the script? what can she do? you can talk about it (or let her know your mind's made up) and unless you're court ordered to "cooperate" i doubt there is anything that they can or would do for disagreeing with logical argument--no matter how "wrong" they might percieve it.
the only thing a shrink must respond to is threats or confessions of hurting yourself or others. so i think you can trust your shrink...if you don't then this disagreement and mistrust (is that a word?) would make a great opportunity to search for a new doc you can trust.
take care
