I started going to an MD for whiplash. I cried in front of him because I was in so much pain. He decided I was chronically depressed and put me on anti-depressants. Paxill was first. It plunged me deeper into depression. Then Remeron was next. It did all kinds of horrible things. I didn't know whether I was coming or going. I finally threw them away and said I would not take antidepressants anymore. For some reason this doctor was bent on getting me on some kind of mind bending drug. Then he decided to see if he could get me on narcotics for pain. I told him no way. Well, then he decided I was suicidally depressed and was all but forcing me to go for a mental eval. I was so upset with him for this. I confided in a friend of mine who is a pyschiatrist and he told me if my doctor was making me do things I did not want to do, then my doctor had too much power in my life. So I cancelled the psyc eval, wrote a letter to my doctor and told him what I did and let him know in as nice a way as possible, that I didn't want to be ordered around. I wanted to make my own decisions about my health. Well, I guess he didn't like that cause he wrote me a letter and said he wouldn't be my doctor anymore! He kicked me out of his practice! I am just as happy! Well, this is just mostly venting for me. But wondered if any of you all have had bad experiences with doctors.

This isn't about medication, so I'd prefer for this to continue at Psycho-Social-Babble:
