Every psychiatrist I have ever gone to just wants to hand out more and more pills. I don't think doctors realize how harmful psychiatric medications can be. I lost two years of high school because of these pills for depression and schizophrenia (which turned out to be a misdiagnosis, by the way). I could barely get out of bed in the morning and the drugs had me sedated all day.
Doctors won't accept that I don't want to take pills. I would like to go to private therapy but I can't afford it, and the health system doesn't give a shit about mental health.
