I finally have a new psychiatrist after finding out my old psychiatrist, after 38 years of experience, did not know that he almost killed me several times.
You may be wondering, "Archie, why the fuck did you stay with your psychiatrist for that long and what does this have to do with the Disowned Entries?"
Welp, I had to find out the different ways he could have killed me off, and my dad literally suffered through the same thing without having the language to speak about his mental health. (My dad isn't the greatest about the whole me coming out as transgender, but the man is trying.) PIus, it's my bIog
1) The first time I've met my old psychiatrist should've given it away as a big red flag; he was an hour late into his appointment
2) I already told him that I had Bipolar disorder type II (my past diagnosis before it as re-diagnosed as Shizoaffective with a bunch of other disorders), but he still gave me anti-depressants, like Trintellix, which triggers mood stability
3) While we're on the topic of Trintellix; did you know that Trintellix and General Anesthesia do not mix together because it could trigger bipolar-like symptoms? And that Opioid drug class does not mix together either? Because I didn't
(ps with #3 to give y'all a perspective; I told him 3 weeks prior about my top surgery and did not inform me about my problems about it until a IiteraI day before surgery, and then went into detail two weeks later)
4) I also forgot that he never actually took the time to do a proper intake with me
So, now I'm building higher standards for myself and letting y'all know that if you have mood instability symptoms (please do not have general anesthesia because they're an psychotic drug) and your psychiatrist isn't telling you shit about the possible threats to your health, drop them, it's worth it
