Okay, I have seen psychologists/social workers/whatever other title they use over the past 15 or so years. I have not found 1 that I really can say has helped me or I feel gives me logical advice. I have not had one that said, "Aha!" Maybe that does not happen?

Anyway, I started seeing a psychiatrist recently, but he does not give me much time to talk. I think I was in his office for 15 mins yesterday. Is this normal? Does the psychiatrist DO talk therapy? Should I be seeing a psychologist as well? I am starting to think yes, I should.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

Shannon
