Oh, Pegasus, I'm glad you said that. My therapist thinks I should confide more in my pdoc, but if something doesn't have medication implications, I see no reason for him to hear about it.
I tell him about upcoming or past stressors, reactions to meds, problems that aren't being adequately addressed by meds. Anything else is none of his business. After having one pdoc who was too involved in my psyche, I resolved not to have that happen again.
My therapist thinks I'm being stubborn. My pdoc is clear that he doesn't *want* to hear about anything that doesn't affect my meds.
