Disappointing mental health care from unhelpful doctors

I previously considered them the pinnacle of medical practices, with incredibly welcoming and compassionate front desk staff. However, the doctors fall short when addressing mental health concerns like anxiety and depression. Their approach seems to be a casual "take these pills and see what happens" attitude, which I suspect is unfortunately typical across medical practices. These professionals desperately need additional training on mental health nuances and medication side effects (my own condition has deteriorated over a decade). If you share childhood challenges, be prepared for dismissive responses like "That's just how life dealt the cards" or "It was a long time ago" - possibly because I'm male and should apparently just "toughen up". Additionally, be prepared for significant waiting times; despite arriving early for appointments, expect delays ranging from 30 minutes to an hour beyond the scheduled time. I've had enough and am switching medical practices. Best of luck to anyone else dealing with this.
