I have a problem that I can't talk to anyone about. I have been seeing my pdoc for 8 years now. I see him every 3 weeks. My bipolar is not under control as my mood swings continue to be erratic and severe in spite of the range of medications I've been on. The thing is, I go through stages where I become obsessed with him. I think about him all the time. I think about his family all the time. What his life must be like, etc. I'm embarrasses to even admit it. I'm not in love with him. I have no sexual fantasies about him - I'm just obsessed with him as a person and his life. How does one get over this? Am I allowed to say this here? I am absolutely tormented by this!

Chloe you are very obviously not getting the help you need from this doctor and I think the obsession is probably related to your health problems with bp. You need a new pdoc, period, and I highly recommend talk therapy. The statistics show that talk therapy and medicine have a much higher degree of success than meds alone.

Please don't hesitate to find a new doctor. Eight years with out any success is too much.
