To @scain
On the contrary. I followed their instructions to the T allowing myself to continue on with some medications when the main side effect of three different medications was anorexia. My PCP said I shouldn’t worry about the excessive weight loss and just worry about fixing the anxiety. So, as a result of listening to her, I have irreparable damage to my body. She decided not to treat me anymore as she was frustrated by my lack of success. Also, there were PNPs who wanted to put me on drugs that I had already been taken off of due to severe side effects. My current Primary Care doctor has a horrible bedside manner and ridiculed me for my anxiety. It’s not easy finding someone who will listen and not judge. I have never felt or acted like I knew best.”
