I'm Searching For A New Psychiatrist Any Questions I Should Ask?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I've been through four different providers and have had to change due to insurance issues and one provider who just wouldn't listen to me about my side effects.

I hope it’s easier for you than it was for me, but I finally found a psychiatrist that fought with me and didn’t give up, we tried so many different meds. My prior psychiatrists had told me that was the best they could do and I’d have to learn to live with it. We fought hard for a couple of years but finally a medication worked for me!!! Auvelity. It came out the end of 2022 and it worked for me!! He always said they are constantly coming out with new drugs, my point is find one that doesn’t give up!

God bless you Tammy! I empathize. Maybe you should ask which doctors don't prescribe medications that make people homebound zombies, or destroy their health over time
