> I had a nightmare appointment with a nut-case psychiatrist a few days ago. Hate to even think about it. I am in terrible crisis and she was determined to lecture me on diet the entire time-- gluten blahblah, food allergies blahblah, absorption blahblah, blood type, dairy --on and on. I tried to explain that I was familiar with all mentioned theories and would consider diet changes but that i was in crisis and was concerned that I would soon stop asking for help. I guess I wasn't clear enough.
> I stopped her when she was telling me about her brother-in-laws spleen, again when she was telling me about her patient who waited 10 years to take her advice, later I told her that I didn't give a damn about her own absorption issues. She was determined to drone on and on in her self-perceived brilliance. The little info she collected from me was directed to supporting her lecture. She was even so kind as to answer some questions for me.
> She would not tell me if she was going to prescribe anything but hinted at antipsychotics.
> I had to leave. I was livid and desperate.
> I really need a thinking doctor to help me. Who knows someone on Brooklyn or Manhattan I can get to?Why didn't you choke her?
