Hi Racer,
Write it all down and read it or hand it to Dr. Eye Candy. That's what my T told me to do with Dr. All State (looks like an insurance agent.) Somehow I mustered the courage to just tell him stuff, but that note was in my pocket if I needed it.
I wish I could offer meds advice, but I'm freshly off Paxil withdrawl and in week three of Effexor. I hope that didn't give you flashbacks of your horrid experience.
Dr. Eye Candy needs his eyes opened that your concerns about meds not working and that no weight gain is mandatory. If he doesn't take you seriously this time, absolutely have your new T talk to him. Have the marriage counselor talk to him again, too.As an ex bulimic, weight gain is something I fear. I fully get where you are coming from and I hope Dr. Eye Candy finally catches on.
Write it down, if anything it'll put it fresh in your mind if you read it before your go in on Tuesday.
Hope I helped, sometimes I don't know if the chemicals in my brain really are functioning enough to be of any use.
