Round 1 Again

Well, after seeing a number of psychiatrists already, I have to say that I have never met anyone like the man I was sent to see last week.
I had never met him before and after 5 minutes with him, he kept on asking me "how do I feel towards him"?
I mean really what is that  supposed to mean when you first see a person, how are you supposed to know that? He is "old school" and not a very likeable personality. I can see this clash is not going to go well.

I kept telling him I did not understand the question, and he just sat there saying the same thing.I think he knew he was starting to push my buttons and finally I said I have no feelings towards him as I just
met him, give me a few more sessions and I am sure I will get to tell you.

Unfortunately in Canada you need these specialists to prescribe the drugs you need when you are depressed  as your GP can only go so far, they are not a specialist in that field. This was the only reason that I was going to see him, but all this guy (god knows how much he is being paid) starts out with these stupid questions and does not want to discuss medications yet. Great! Just what I need is to have to go through the same discussions I have already gone through with two other psychiatrists I had already seen before. Haven't figured out yet if it is worth it or not.

Stay tuned for around two
