Re: Doctor Reluctant to Treat the Comorbidities

Librarian_chef,

So glad you didn’t get offended… that is always a worry of mine.

I thought almost the identical thing when my psychiatrist looked the results over, she was concerned with my memory issues but she seemed more concerned with the ADHD because it appeared to be masking everything else. It was only after being treated for ADHD that she decided to look closer at the other issues.

Therefore, I am working with a coach on improving my memory because the Concerta seems to be doing what it needs to.

The approach surprised me but now looking at it, it makes sense. Getting one thing out of the way and then moving forward to deal with the others.

I would like to think and hope that you doctor would pay enough attention to your concerns to take action with the other issues rather then simply ignore them.

It might be advantageous to keep a log of the feelings and the self-talk and bring them to the doctor – something that I am sure that you are or have done already. If the doctor is worth their weight in salt, they will address your concerns readily; however, if the doctor is not, then I would say its time to shop around for another.

Sorry, that is just an opinion… not advice.
