Ask: Not sure, it is probably better to pose your question to the psychiatrist. Keep an open line of communication with your physician always. If you have a question, then please ask it rather then go home and think about it on your own. Things, including a surprised look can be interpreted differently then it was initially meant. Ask.

Not all people: React the expected way to medication and some times it is a perplexing problem to figure out exactly how to help someone best. Sometimes it takes a while.

Surprised?: Well, patients' responses can be surprising sometimes. Maybe you were feeling better than he expected for the length of time you'd been on the medicine? Or maybe worse? Were you surprised too? If you share further, maybe we can answer better. Take care.

If you are not confident with your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
