Does anyone's doctor tried to refer them to a psychologist? Because of nothing working and helping me my doctor insist on sending me to talk to someone.

If you suffer from depression and or anxiety. Then yes go. It is common for people with chronic illness. Most everyone I've ever talked to with fibro sees a psychiatrist. Fibro and depression go hand in hand.

Interesting point. That's a problem for many, there are some therapists out there that will do phone counseling on the days you can't make it in....
