Anthony - after eight years of seeing my Pdoc, I am thinking of changing also. He is about an hour away also, his office hours are barely tolerable (spends most of his day at a hospital), and he seems confused as to why I am not "better?"
I just went two or three years without feeling depressed and only having twice/year maintenance visits. I'd call that progress.
Anyway, I am extremely depressed and unmotivated again and need to see him.
On the plus side, he is an esteemed doc who is not benzo phobic (I take Klonopin), and is usually open to sensible requests on my part when it comes to prescribing ADs. I have a history with him. He knows not to even bother suggesting Paxil or Effexor for me, for instance.
I am afraid of change..........
