I think there must be great variation in
tolerance of non-compliance among doctors.
It doesn't sound to me as if you have been
consistently non-compliant, but it's best
to at least ask beforehand if there is some
leeway you can have in adjucting your meds for
personal comfort.Some doctors understand that if you are getting
sick on a med you will stop, but they really should know, so that an adjustment can be tried.Personally, I prefer the assertive dr. approach but i understand that in the current absence of psychiatric knowledge, this is not as easy as in other medical fields.
Good luck.
