    I want to ask about my experience I went to see psychologist it was first time after she refers me to psychiatric nxt day when I get ther I fill up the form, and before we start session I was asked to pay. After that I was asked how can we help you and I mentioned what my problem is and why I am here, I was the one leading talking that I have illusion, I have assumption I think it is anxiety or depression after that I was given questions to answer that might correspond with the symptoms I have and I did answer all of those questions. The Dr then decided to write prisciption for me for the medication I have to buy, she said to any pharmacy or chemistry. She was busy with her phone while I was talking and she hold calls while I am talking. She didn't asked me about my history of mental illness or how was my childhood how I grew up to get as much information before she can decide to give me priscription. I did not but medication so I want to ask if, is it the way the psychiatrist works or with the first time patient.

      I'm sorry that has been your experience because that's not usually how it goes especially as an outpatient (outside the hospital). If you don't feel heard, please find a different doctor if you can! In my videos I try to give general information but everyone practices differently.

      I can't give specific medical advice here but I can speak in general terms. Most people go in with questions written down so they don't forget their questions. So writing down notes or things to say/ask is always helpful. You can also ask for a print out after the visit which most doctor's office do but you can ask for yours to have specific instructions for you as well. Glad you are taking this step for your health! Good luck!

      Turn to bible and allow CHRIST to be your therapist, psychologist and psychiatrist. No man nor women fits to be one. All are sinners and without glory, all are tempted and suffer the same. All are expected to REPENT AND BORN AGAIN, to LIVE HOLY AND GO AND SIN NO MORE. All are weak in the daily fight between their spirit and flesh. All these therapist, psychologist and psychiatrist, this world provides, can do is: to deceive and steal. They deceived you through all these “diagnoses” and they steal your money, through all the pills which you “need”. In short: they poison your mind and your overall health, leaving you with neither one. Therapist, Psychologist and Psychiatrist = Field where no human soul, never ever going to fit of being an help, no matter the among of years spend in “medical schools” or the decree gotten from there. ALL of us are daily deceived, no matter the walks of life.

    • @n.o.atheexplorer
      @n.o.atheexplorer Год назад

      That will depend on each physician if they write those letters. In my training we do not write them because we cannot certify that the animal is trained so we will ask folks to go to a center that can actually see the animal and make sure it is trained. Then that center can write the letter.

    Before you prescribe medication do you order a blood tea to find out brain enzymes and protein deficiency or for that mather cortisol elevated levels etc?

    • @n.o.atheexplorer
      @n.o.atheexplorer Год назад

      We typically try to rule out any obvious medical causes that can manifest with psychiatric symptoms but any extensive testing should be done and managed by your primary care physician and other specialists. So if a psychiatrist suspects a medical illness as a possible cause they may refer you back to your primary care to start the work up for that. I am usually not managing elevated cortisol levels or protein deficiencies but if it is suspected then you will need to see you primary care physician to help with the management of that.

      That would be between you and your psychiatrist. The more information we have, the more we can help. I typically ask why someone does not want to share but I don't probe if you decide not to. We usually just document that you did not share the information or answer the question and that's it. As long as the information asked is not about imminent risk of harm to yourself or anyone else. Again, it's between you and your psychiatrist to come to a decision. Thanks for watching!
