My psychiatrist is always fabricating problems about me and I find him to be dishonest. Every month I see him and he asks me how I'm getting along with my parents and I tell him we don't get along. In his write up of me to university, he said that I have a psychological disorder that causes me to be highly suspicious of others and that I have "troubled thinking patterns."

In other words, he thinks that the issues I with my parents are imagined and a product of my delusional mind. He doesn't believe that I have valid reasons to distrust both my parents and him as well. I believe that my mother raped my soul, and destroyed me psychologically, by giving me schizophrenia and handicapping my emotional development, I also believe that I will spend eternity in hell because my dad corrupted my thinking patterns, and destroyed my soul but I obviously can't explain that to a secular psychiatrist .

I can think of so many things that are wrong with my parents but am not very good at putting into words, how I feel, or why I feel the way that they feel so it seems like my impressions are inaccurate and a result of paranoia. because I tell him they cause me great distress but can't pin point a reason why I feel that way. What do I say?

try changing your psychiatrist. I've gone through plenty and none of them helped me. all I ended up doing was lying to them, getting my prozac, and selling them. not a good thing. I finally found a psychiatrist who I felt I could trust and I haven't had any mental breakdowns since I stopped seeing her (about a year and a half ago)

ummmm. as I recall schizophrenia is frequently biologically based (though the cause is disputed). That makes it unlikely that someone can give it to you but they could certainly exacerbate it. The bad relationship is confound but not cause of the sickness. Getting these mixed up can cause lots of confusion.

If you have a complaint, try to generate some kind of corroboration for the complaint. If you were mistreated, find out a way to show it. If there is no way to show it, think carefully on why you believe it. Sometimes if we are angry at people, we can get confused about causation.

If you don't trust your psychiatrist, find another one. There are some idiots in the field who simply don't do a good job. You have the right to review your medical records and that includes case notes. Go take a look at them and find out what he is putting down. If it doesn't coincide with your experience of him, it might be time to go shopping. Above all, be calm and matter of fact. The more emotional you get about the issue, the more you remove the credibility of your statements.

Oh, and before you ask, yes, someone in my life has schizophrenia and believes things that are demonstrably not true. It's really hard to be close to her when she insists these things.

First be sure that you feel calm. When you do go to the doctor, ask to see your records.
Next, I would see how you can get a copy of them(you might have to pay), and look for
another doc. Not every doctor is truly qualified for everyone, that's okay. Just look for
another one. Keep calm. Don't blame the world for your problems. The world doesn't
have to handle them, you do. I'm not saying this is fair, we would all like a better
hand-out. Let this be a time for you to demonstrate your maturity and make it a path
towards a better tomorrow. Good Luck!

Get a second opinion by switching therapists. Explain to your university that you are wanting to do so. The thing is, I'm going to be honest with you. Parents can mess with our heads. I have met plenty of parents that had no business being parents due to various reasons. You have to do your best to rise above and better yourself. Take responsibility and choose not to be like them and choose not to let them effect you anymore. This is not easy and sometimes it is really difficult but it is acheivable. Good luck. Find a new therapist that doesn't berate you and chalk it up to a mental disorder.

you have the right to as for a new psychiatrist I changed mine before because I felt the one I was given didn't understand me, so you should just change and if they think the same well then you must have these issues
