It all sounds very complicated. Here, you can't see a psychiatrist without a referal from your GP. In fact, you can't see any type of specialist without a referal from your GP. You don't normally get much of a choice RE who you get referred to - just one of the consultants at the nearest hospital usually. There are no issues with insurance; services are funded by the NHS. Those who can afford sometimes pay to see a 'private' doctor if the NHS consultant has a long waiting list. Most psychiatrists rarely use MAOIs. They mainly use SSRIs and atypical antipsychotics. It's normally a case of like it or lump it. I don't see a psychiatrist anymore, just my GP for time to time.
