Sorry you're going through a rough time and that your reaching out to help, through your recent hospitalization, only seemed to add insult to injury. "Blaming the patient" is a common reaction of doctors to cases they are unsuccessful in treating. But it's not just doctors. Family members sometimes do it, too. Part of the reason, in either case, is frustration that progress is not being made. This doesn't excuse the behavior, but may make it a little easier to understand and to not be so hard on ourselves. Most patients know if they are compliant with treatment, which is the most you can do. So it sounds like your experience had to do more with your doctor's frustration at not being able to help you than it does your sanity, so go easy on yourself. As for the new pdoc you're seeing next week, at the very least, you'll be getting a fresh perspective on your condition, as well as treatment options. Hopefully, this will represent a turning of the corner for you so that you can, indeed, see a light at the end of the tunnel, and begin recovering.
