in my experience, there's not even as much consistency therapist to therapist, psychiatrist to psychiatrist, as there is in the rest of the medical field.

I love my psychiatrist, but what I love is that she's very much about staying up to date and knowing what she's prescribing, and probing to see if it's working (I am a terrible judge the worse off I am. no, really, it's fine, I can just wake up a little earlier and add a panic attack to my morning routine, don't change my drugs. huh..ok, since we upped the dose, I haven't had a panic attack, I guess that was a good idea.)
