It is so frustrating when the doc will not help. I can not work because I am so tired all the time. I have no friends because it takes energy to make friends. Going to the next doc appt. will be a waste. I used to have racing mind, now that I do not work it is better. I wish doc would help me. /thanjks for listening.

Can I suggest ( If I may) CHANGE YOUR DOCTOR!! If you can and it's doable for you. I was going to a psychiatrist who I didn't click with, I felt like she didn't listen to me and she would scold me if I ever missed an appointment or forgot to mention a new symptom. I simply asked the ladies at the from desk if there was another doctor I could see. They set me up with the NP that they have on staff and I LOVE HER. She listens and helps. She is concerned and reassuring. She put me on meds that actually help and doesn't try switching them up (the first dr i visited put me on 3 different antipsychotics that i didn't need within 4 months) When I cry, she hugs me and cries too. You have a right to "fire" your doctor if you feel you aren't getting proper care. Don't be scared to ask if there is another option. I hope this helps you.

Hi what are you expecting/hoping your doctor can or will do? They follow the medical route which is meds and counselling. If you don't want any of that then I am not sure how they can help you? Maybe try a different doctor?

Have you looked at the self help route? Have a look at mindfullness, meditation and yoga etc. x
