I answered a depression questionnaire. I scored really high and my doctor told me I probably wasn’t as depressed as the results showed…

I told her about my anxiety and it resulted in my doctor saying I probably wasn’t depressed just anxious…

The doctor said she could put me on anxiety meds that they give teenagers to help me sleep. I have already told her three times I don’t struggle with sleep. I’m pretty sure I am not going thru a teenage crisis in my mid twenties. I sleep 10h a day and as a matter of fact struggle to get out of bed and lay there for 14h a day…

Because of my depression and anxiety I failed my bachelors degree and now I have to re-do the third year. She told be if I just studied for 3h a day I might be less anxious and feel better. Oh, how I wish I knew I could just study! Haven’t thought of that one before…

She said it is probably more because of my ADHD, that I struggle to study. I just need to take my Ritalin. But then again, she told me not take it yet, because I need to fix my life and be able to eat and sleep properly again…

Lastly, because I am studying to become a psychologist, she told me it is okay to struggle mentally and not feel bad about it, just as doctors also can get physically sick despite being doctors…


I think it time to get an new doctor.
