> And I'm sending out a gigantic *THWAP* to the psych who thought her problems were her kids. Bad psych, no
cookie for you.
I *love* it. Entirely appropriate for some clinicians -- never considered a rolled up newspaper.
I really wish I had the training to explain somatoform disorders better but I don't. Can you ask on psycho-social?
My only experience with this sort of thing: in grad school we take comprehensive exams -- we study 18 hours a day for
a year and sit 12 hours of horrible exams. The examiners as a rule have memories like elephants and big mouths -- it's a
horror. Several of us needed new eyeglass prescriptions but one colleague developed a somatoform disorder -- she went blind.
This was not volitional in any regard.
What the pdoc said to you about paxil and independence issues is akin to reading tea leaves unless you were huddled in the corner
screaming at your parents at the same time -- the whole thing is nuts.
Just find a clinician to treat you -- you need assistance to stop the paxil and recover from the movement disorder -- regardless of
its origin.
Keep the rolled up newspaper handy tho.
