Hi, I’m a 35 M. I have just moved psychologists after two sessions and I’m not feeling that I’m really being treated correctly. I have been over my upbringing on seperate occassions sometimes having to repeat myself and I feel since I’m on medicare don’t want time wasted. In the past it’s been the case with other psychologists, they send back out and I’m back to my coping mechanisms nonethebetter. I feel since I haven’t yet recieved an evaluation I’m being treated simply as someone with symptoms of anxiety and mood disorder. The CBT can’t get through to me and I feel because of this I’m resistant to the methods suggested. I’ve been depressed for a long time (untreated) having to get by on by through coping mechanisms rooted in childhood, along with issues of dealing with stress I suspect also an underlying personality disorder. These get in the way of work and vice versa, either it be anxiety/panic attacks, incessant chatter (constantly told not to talk), mood swings from happy to aggressive. So at present I haven’t returned since and the thought of being sent back to job services and pushed into an detrimental environment gives me anxiety, I feel trapped. Knowing that I’ll leave the psychologist the same way I came in then should I consider seeing a psychiatrist, or what other mental health programs can be available to me ? thanks in advance
