Its official. Since the fourth doctor told me im not autistic I will accept it

It’s super hard to find a good psych. Idk what it is about that specialty specifically that puts out so many incompetent and negligent fucking doctors. I’ve seen like 5 my entire life, and out of those, there were only three that I would consider competent. One of those being way too conservative and wouldn’t prescribe me antidepressants when I needed them due to bipolar disorder. Which contributed to my depression and anxiety more bc he was so bent up over prescribing them to me and tried a multitude of other meds that weren’t helpful. My episode got worse after that, and I had to switch psychs. Lo and behold I’m doing perfectly fine on them and actually still have mild depression. Maybe it’s just my area though idk. We don’t have many providers here.
