I love my GP but psych meds arent her forte. Who does everyone go to to get your meds? I mentioned a psychiatrist to my therapist and she looked at me like I was crazy.
I usually go to my physician for my medications, but a psychiatrist is also good.
My psychiatrist does my meds! my GP wont touch them. It depends what medication you are too. GP can do anti depressants but not anti-manic or anti-psychotics (well that's what i have found). I can't imagine why your therapist would not recommend a psychiatrist.
I go to a pdoc who prescribes for me, my therapist suggests if I'm down to up my meds. My GP also consults with my pdoc. They are all aware of my problems!!!
