Duly added. I can also be included, though not to the extent of your self and the bearded one. Many years ago I listened to a GP try to help me with something I didn't understand and that he, in hindsight, was absolutely not specialised in. Six months down the road, and doing much worse, I ended up by chance seeing someone with relevant training and expertise, and positive results came very quickly. The issue turned out to be panic disorder, which was distressing and confusing at the time, but has well researched and comprehendible diagnostics, physiological aspects, and treatment. I don't distrust or heap scorn on GPs as a result, they are typically very good at what they do. I happened to get one who made the simple error of not referring onwards.
These days GPs are more worded up on things like panic disorder, but for people who are experiencing it to an extreme level I'd still be wanting them to see a Psychologist.
