My psych doc is witholding meds from me. It's because I missed an appointment and even though I have a valid reason I didn't show up (Strep throat) she won't see me for 2 weeks. This means I'll be out of meds for two weeks. She won't write a script for inbetween time.

I just had two opinion questions, I want the general consensus to see if I am in the wrong.

1. This is the third time she has done this to me. These are meds I NEED! They are for anxiety and depression. Now, do you think she has a right to withold them from me? First a little background. EVERY OTHER Psychiatrist I have seen would give me scripts for three month periods of time. I was ALWAYS med compliant and that would reflect in my files. I start a job this week and will need the meds. Do you think she has a right to do this?

2. Since this is the third time she has done this, I looked up the number to report her to the medical boards of Ohio. All it'll take is one phone call and a huge fuss and she'll be investigated. I don't like this woman to begin with so seeing her go through the hell of an investigation WILL NOT guilt me. If she witholds the meds a third time, do you think it's fair to call?

Without these meds I become a danger to myself. I will self harm, I will not get out of bed, I will be completely destructive. Now, my father (A lawyer) and other lawyers I have consulted over this matter say that although I will be held responsible for my actions OFF the meds, my doctor will be to should I lash out and harm someone else or myself. Think of it like this. If this was heart medication she was witholding, the AMA would be on her ass so fast. What gives her the right to do this to me? And not only me! My Ex-Fiance had the SAME exact problem with her, luckily she got to switch doctors.

Before you suggest I switch doctors, be clear that A. I have tried my damndest to do so. and B. When I told my current doctor that I wanted a new doctor she basically said "Tough shit, no one else will see you." So apparently she knows she can do whatever the hell she wants with me and I can't do crap about it. None of this is fair...At least to me. I would like a second opinion.
