I’ve been trying to get mine to up my clozapine for 8 months now.
Bleh…

My pdoc gives me good advice on WhatsApp so yes I think he’s a good listener. Especially as he remembers these conversations when I eventually get to see him and we discuss the issues in more detail. I’m very happy with him.

Pdr give their phone number? That would be cool.
Never happened to me though and I won’t ask for it.

My Pdoc lets me talk a whole hour for $100 she used to take insurance but I don’t think they allow doctors to talk for more than 5 minutes.

Yeah. I’m a good talker so that helps too. We usually talk about the state of Australian and world cricket. We both like our cricket and he sees whether I’m sensible or paranoid and gets a feel of my mental state. I get like 10-15 minutes but probably only need 5 to be honest but I think it’s good to catch up regularly even if your doing well.

My psychiatrist gives 50 minutes of talk therapy every time I visit her which I appreciate. She is smart but expensive. She wants to talk all about my personal life and give me advice. I learned more about schizophrenia from this website than from her though.

Mines too, I’ve been stable for a long time. So, he just asks me pretty basic questions which lasts 5-10 mins. I see him every 2-3 months.
