I just started seeing a new pdoc. Much more honest about meds--making sure I am not looking for a magic bullet necessarily--stating that meds work to help your condition by approx. 30%; and actually having me read over the potential side effects and signing a document to that effect.
All pdocs should be required to do so! Or for that matter, all docs--as psychotropic medications aren't the only ones with serious side efects.
