Experiences with mental health professionals?

I know a lot of people have serious problems when trying to find out exactly what is wrong, but the Dr. should explain what disorder/s they think you might have, why the meds would be good or wouldn't and other options . Keep looking until you find someone who takes you serious , at your first appointment with someone new tell them what you want out of your time with them, what you expect, need , won't tolerate ect and they should do the same. If they aren't willing to try meet your needs and actually try to help, then don't go back. but you also have to be willing to accept to some extent the diagnoisis they give you. I've been fairly lucky with the people i've seen, but had a few bumps on the road too, I wish you the best of luck, just keep trying.
