It's very true, with some Psychiatrists you have to really try and pander to their ego.
Everything I have ever suggested to my current psychiatrist, he sort of shakes his head and negative about it immediately. I can never understand him very well because his English is not very clear and I'm often suggesting things to him that he's never heard of.
When I do suggest things to him that our outside his sphere of experience he just shakes his said and says either it's not contradicted or it's still in trials. He never goes out of his way to find out about new research or new treatments and I sometimes think I know more than him out of need really. His need is not so great as mine.
Like this guy said to me, he wishes you could put doctors and psychiatrists in some kind of depression stimulator then they'd know what it feels like, the sense of desperation you feel and the sense of urgency.
Another (good) psychiatrist said to me that people only start running around doing things if you're laid in bed and not drinking and eating but if you suffer from chronic TRD but still able to function nobody really gives a damn.
