In reply to Appointment with New Pdoc- Did Not Tell T, posted by Poet on July 16, 2005, at 11:59:08

> I know I need to call T and tell her that I am seeing a new pdoc. I don't know why I didn't tell her on Tuesday when I talked to her on the phone or Thursday in person. Maybe I am ashamed that I need meds and pdocs, and that therapy isn't enough? Hmm, I think that might be it.

Hi Poet,I wouldn't worry about telling your T. I mean you left the p-doc for legitimate reasons. Most ppl couldn't afford a p-doc if they didn't have ins. As a matter of fact, mine told me just weeks ago, that some of his clients would leave a 10 year relationship if they didn't have the ins. I think your T might too given the same situation.
As far as needing meds and needing therapy. I guess sometimes the combo is the best, sometimes one or the other is enough. It just depends on the situation and the person. I don't think your T would think any less of you for having a chemical imbalance any more than needing any other medication.
Don't be so hard on yourself! I bet your T won't be.
