I've been on sertraline/zoloft for almost 7 years now. My daughter has recently started as well, and since she is a minor, I have been sitting in on her psychiatry appointments with her. I realized in sitting in that I would benefit more from seeing a psychiatrist than I would continuing to see my GP who doesn't seem to have much knowledge on these types of meds.

I made a virtual appointment with a psychiatrist this afternoon and I am really nervous about it. Doctors in general make me very anxious. Since I am already on sertraline (100mg), do you think they are going to have to talk to me for the full hour? What has been your experience going into an appointment with a new psychiatrist for medication management?
