I think Christ-Empowered is right. Are you seeing someone privately? If not, it may be worth 'shopping around'. Where I used to live, the public health system was a joke, while private health insurance didn't cover psychiatric costs, meaning I was paying out of my *ss for pdoc appointments. Consequently, I never had any difficulty getting pdocs to agree to drug trials (except where stimulants were concerned); in fact, the more I paid, the more agreeable they were. Unless you're psychotic or manic or completely unstable, I think you should be entitled to negotiate with your pdoc.
