I'm having a really bad day. I went to see my psychiatrist this morning. Since seeing him last month, I quit taking the medication for bipolar disorder. I just wanted to take a little vacation from it! (I know that was stupid, but I wanted to see how I would feel without it.)

When I told him, he had a fit. I started crying (which makes him nervous. I've decided that's usually the fastest way to get escorted out of his office!) He said I have a habit of not wanting to follow his instructions, and I told him that wasn't true----that I had been taking the medicine faithfully for a year. He said he wasn't going to argue with me about it.

When he said, "You and I are just not seeing eye to eye on anything today," I panicked. I thought he was going to say he didn't want to see me anymore.

This doctor is supposed to be one of the best in the area. (He recently made the short list of the city's top doctors.) But he's very hard for me to read. He's very clinical, and not touchy-feely at all, just the opposite of my previous doctor.

I hate that the visit went so poorly.

I'd hate to see what he wrote in my file today. Probably---"Patient from hell. Get rid of ASAP!"
