Hi Posterchild,
I just went through this exact issue. I can't stand Psychiatrists offices either. I've had a couple of really bad experiences. I get meds from my family practice Dr. I just told her the situation, and that I had a therapist recommending medication.
He/she may want to talk to your therapist, and if that's okay with you, you should be able to just sign a release form from your therapist and they can talk (if your doctor requests it). Your Dr. might just be willing to write you a prescription. Those doctors are all so different.
Hopefully this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions. I would hate to see you leave school because you don't want to see a psychiatrist. I totally understand how you feel though.
