There is nothing wrong with a good therapist. I spent years in therapy, on and off all kinds of meds and even spent time on psych wards. But that was for depression.

However it was necessary. It was my last psychiatrist five years ago who told my PCP that the problems were physical, not just mental. My PCP thinks it's mostly mental with occasional neurological evidence thrown in. But he is just a PCP who has not made any attempt to pursue continuing education, nor does he do much research. He isn't interested in mystery patients, all he cares about is BP and weight and cholesterol.

So - like bobcatrules I work around him.

Sometimes it's the only way. Even psych patients get sick. I often say I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid.
