Both. The doctor/patient relationship should be one of a consultant, not a dictator. Basically, the way it works is that I tell my doctor the way I feel, let him know if I have any ideas, and he tells me whether or not they are sound. For instance, I wanted to do Nardil + Dexedrine. He had me do trials of a few other things first that were "safer", and I went along with it because I trust him implicitly. But Nardil + Dexedrine is what I ended up on because nothing else really worked that well.
