> > WOW Q, YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN!!! I don't know about the self medication aspect but I AM THOUROUGHLY CONVINCED that this doctor is in NO WAY interested in helping me.

I spoke to his receptionist who told me that he wasn't in on Tuesday but that she would have him call me on Wednesday. Well he didn't call on Wednesday, so I called again on Thursday and spoke to the receptionist again and she told me that he had been given the message from Tuesday and that he would call me later on Thursday. He did not call. Today is Friday and I still haven't heard back from him. I just called again and this time I was only able to leave a recoreded message (even though his office should be open right now) so I left a message and said " I don't understand why you haven't called me yet..but I am expecting someone to return my 3 messages and I would like to know why it hasn't happend yet" It is obvious that this doctor has NO intention or interest in really helping me or even being simply availabe or responsible.

The drugs I've had from him so far haven't been any more effective than the others, but just knowing he takes an interest makes all the difference.

> QQ, I couldn't agree with you more!! I have to have a doctor that makes me comfortable, not intimidated, and I have to feel as though he actually "sees me" "hears me" and cares about what I am going through. I mean for gosh sakes ESPECIALLY if its a Psychiatrist!!!!
Thanks Q,
John
