As one who has been on both sides of the situation let me at least say this. My basic suggestion: STAND FIRM,BE POLITE, DON'T LEAVE UNTIL YOU ARE SATISFIED. What you are facing now is the some extent a product of that charming inovation known as "managed care." I strongly recommend that you get a good therapist (not an MD psychiatrist) - best is probably a PhD or PsyD psychologist. HE/she is qualified to diagnose. They in turn (if they are worth their salt)will usually know a reliable MD/ psychiatrist who can prescribe for you with the psychologhts' recommendation while you are in therapy.
I don't have all of the answers, but this seems to work best -- it has for me and others that I know and is what those of us "in the business" find the easiest to work with.
Now days MD/Psychiatrists have little time to do more than prescribe -- sad though it may be.
Let me know how this works out for you.
