Not everbody thinks they're smarter than their doctor.
I used to think that just because I read a few studies about some drug that all of a sudden I know more than my doctor.
Many times psychrists don't focus on the dumb little details (like which med has a higher affinitiy for such and such) mainly because they try and look at the bigger picture.
Sometimes it is only years in hindsight that I realize that my psychiatrist was actually doing me a favor by making certain decisions.
Sometimes its like being a kid. When I was growing up, I always thought I was smarter than my parents. "Oh their rules are so dumb, anyone can clearly see that..."
But as I got older, those dumb rules acutally made sence on a totally different level.
Some psychiatrists don't fester on the details, because it might not be necessary.
