> It has taken me fifteen hours to get here. Now I know what it's like to climb an ice-covered Kilamanjaro in roller skates. But I've stuck with this b/c I need a peer group so much, and the fact that this site is overseen by a quirky father figure is totally aces with me. Y'all sound plenty smart and charming and I hope I can make a contribution.
> My ruling nightmare is a recent conflict w/ my shrink, who looks like Robert Downey Jr. and wears sharkskin suits. Ergo, I adore him. He became enraged w/me Wednesday when he returned to the office and saw me studying my chart. I've never seen him so upset and we've battled majorly in the 3 years I've been seein him. He said he'd fire me on the spot if I ever did that again. "This is mine," I said evenly, gesturing to the 4 inch thick folder. "It's mine," he intoned, and around we went. Any doctor would be appalled at what I'd done, he said, and I should ask 20 people if they think I was out of line. I replied that I don't care if 50 people tell me I was perfectly appropriate I'll never do it again seeing how it effected him so and I meant it. My question is shall I chalk this hypersensitivity up to HIS STUFF or am I truly out of bounds peeking at my chart when a dr. steps out of the room? Incidentally he isn't withholding secrets from me, he reads me his words verbatim any time I ask him to. Any response would be appreciated!


That was unprofessional. If he didn't want you to look at it he shouldn't have left it out. Leaving it out knowing most patient's natural curiosity could be interpreted as being destructively manipulative. My pdoc keeps that thing under wraps at *all* times. Honestly, I don't want to know what is written in there.
