Very interesting to me, as I wouldn't (and don't) even complain directly to my psychiatrist about things that bother me. People can be temperamental, as I've learned from experience. One time my psychiatrist at a community health clinic tried to terminate me without telling me, but his supervisor made him keep me (my therapist who I was also seeing at the same clinic showed me the e-mail chain as he thought it was unethical that the psychiatrist hadn't told me about trying to terminate me). This was the one who lost his medical license for not showing up for jail after a drunk driving accident and prescribing himself Ambien, so I no longer take it personally. Although it was very upsetting at the time. I kept seeing him without mentioning that I knew he tried to terminate me. Now I see a psychiatrist in a private outpatient setting, so there wouldn't be that type of management if things went south. There's no such thing as a "patient advocate" like you have at hospitals. As such, and I know I know it doesn't seem like it on this board, but in real life I walk on eggshells around psychiatrists. I assumed if I filed a board report it would be the end of that relationship. Especially with the shortage of psychiatrists, I try to stay on their good side. It would take months to get in anywhere else and when a doctor is prescribing a drug that you would die if you stopped taking suddenly, that weighs on your mind heavily.
