I'm so glad you are encouraged and ready to take a hand in your recovery. My personal experience has been that if I just wait for a doc to figure it out I'll never get anywhere. Just my experience, but most definitely when left up to them all they have ever done with me is guess work and giving me their favorite drug (which I suspect has more to do with who their favorite drug sales rep is than anything else). LOL - kinda.
Don't be surprised if you bring up atyp depr, and your doc is not familiar with it, or it's treatment implications. I don't think many of them are really up on it, and I know most get threatened when you come in knowing more than they do about something ; ). Maybe best to print out a little bit of lit on it and leave it with him/her.
Very best of luck!! Please let us know how it goes.
