My Psychiatrist Appt was WEIRD
I'll play the part of me. And the part of my Psychiatrist, P.
Me: I'm not sure changing my meds the way you did last month is working for me. I don't think I'm the kind of wacky you think I am. I'm just really anxious.
P: Let's try different crazy pills again. How old are you?
Me: (for the 100th time). I'm 30.
P: And what kind of BC are you using?
Me: (for the 60th time). Can doms.
P: I do not want to put you on crazy pills X because you could get pregnant and have a deformed fetus. Y will also give you a deformed fetus.
Me: I've take plan B twice. We're good.
P: Crazy pills Z could make you gain weight, but since you already have a high BMI, that wouldn't actually happen.
Me: ARE YOU CALLING ME FAT!?!? Okay, I didn't really say that. More like, I don't think I need new crazy pills. I think my old crazy pills at the higher dosage was 80% effective. I'm okay with that compared to the last month.
P: I like all my patients to be 100%.
Me: I don't think it's realistic to expect anyone to feel 100% sane. Especially people who go to psychiatrists.
P: Long meaningful look.
Me: Long meaningful look. Delayed raised eyebrow.
P: Okay, I'm going to put you back to your normal dosage of old crazy pills and give you a sample of some new crazy pills.
Me: Umm. Uhhh. I'm not sure about that. I think I'm good with 80%.
MORE STARING.
P: Lets just give it a month.
Me. FINE! MOAR PILLS!
Seriously though. If I tell you I don't think I need something, are you going to push it on me? The funny thing. I gave in. Like a biitch. Just like a little biitch.

If I were a man (or fitty) I'd totally call my penis THE WIZARD - HappyTummy
I'm all angry for you, Bugle. That's not cool. I did enjoy picturing your long meaningful looks, though. 80% is just fine!
If I were your doctor, I would sing this to you:
You've never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
IIIIII would not leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
Is there any reason that dry humping administered by me can't bridge the 20 percent gap?

this will sound irresponsible, but: I like going to my gp for my crazy pills, because she basically defers to me.
Psychiatrists always make it so complicated.
might you consider this:
go to a new gp (or your existing?) and tell them that you are on x. but you feel like it isn't quite cutting it, and do they think that an upped dose might be more effective, because if yes, then you'd like to try. say you're not interested in switching to something else- just that you'd like to try more of x.
and some valium, and some xanax. and any pain pills they have laying around.
