This was one of the worst experiences of my life, i have been to many psychiatrists, all throughout my life. Once i moved from school back to austin i tried him out, he was not nice, he was not supportive, he made me feel like it was all my fault why i feel like i feel. From the first 5 minutes i could tell he was not the doctor for me. I was perscribed to all kinds of medication for my anxiety, and i was hoping for answers from him. He perscribed me to a medicine that is for epilepsy and seizers, he also said that a head injury from 10 years ago could be causing all of this. He told me to go through 6 different tests (i would have to pay for) before he could help me further.
A psychiatrist is supposed to support you, help you and make you feel better even if you are in a sticky situation, he made me feel worse, and scared. I had a panic attack right when i walked out of the building.
Please, do not use this doctor he will pull you down, there are other ones out there that will actually help you dont feel like i did.
I felt like there was nothing i would ever be able to do about my anxiety after this meeting, and now its completely under control because i went somewhere else.
Pros: i realized that not all doctors know what they are doing
Cons: Doesnt care about you personally, perscribes wrong meds.
