My psychiatrist shot himself in the foot

Postby SBBro » Sun Feb 01, 2015 8:50 am

So after seeing a psychologist for over a year who was encouraging me to feel good about myself and not putting any label on me I ended up relapsing due to BPD, this only gave him the $#%^ s because his job was to be emotionally disconnected(approach to cluster B patients). I ended up in a psych ward due to a drug induced psychotic break and discharged to a psychiatrist who is really nice but he gets tangled up in his lies. He wanted to speak to my psychologist and I told him he could but warned him we left on bad terms. Ever since then he has been a bit emotional with our sessions. Due to his change in attitude I asked him if he did speak to him and he denies it. We spoke about psychology and I showed him proof its a weak science.

What happens next is my old psychologist then posts on facebook things in retort to what I said to my psychiatrist about psychology which is in itself evidence my psychiatrist is passing on my info to my old psychologist who I am pretty sure is obsessed with me.
My psychiatrist even $#%^ tested me to see if I had his trust and I did until last session my old psychologist gets mentioned again and my psychiatrist says "the one you thought I spoke to?" LOL wrong line buddy. I am really not sure if he is aware I have evidence of what is happening but I know he will just flat out deny things anyway.

These head doctors are just trained to talk $#%^ thats their job.
Psychologists are trained to be empathetic and reassure you everything is okay just like a politician does to his people. Psychiatrists are trained for patient compliance and emotional intelligence.
It seems hard but I guess when its your job and you practice it every day lieing becomes easy.

I was thinking to myself my psychiatrist would make a lot more money playing poker but he has a tell. What is kind of shocking is how confident he is with just telling lie after lie even when nothing adds up, telling me I have schizophrenia(a brain disease) based on a discharge report of only symptoms. Then telling me I have ADHD the next month, when I tell him I am taking my risperidone his face lit up like he was pleased. Nice guy but just another fraudulent profession like psychology.

The worst thing though is he is suppose to be keeping my family doctor updated with my progress as thats who the referral is from but instead he is keeping my old psychologist updated who I dont even see anymore. When my mum called him to check about me he flipped out "how did you get my number!? I cant tell you anything about my patient" LOL but he can tell my psychologist everything.

So just my ######6 luck I had a psychologist who was emotionally distant and a psychiatrist who is emotionally involved, which is completely backwards.

I really dont know what to make of it, I know he is trying to help me but he comes off as a complete compulsive liar who at the end of the day cant be trusted.

The only person I trust is me.
Not because of fear, but because people are not trustworthy.
This you are finding by experience.

You seem smart enough to figure the answers for yourself.
That way, you become strong and independent.

Find ideas that allow you to respect yourself.
Lead yourself away from things that don't work.
