Hi babblers:  I still have issues related to my diagnose (gender identity disorder). I do not know what I should do next or who I should talk to because I feel stuck.

 its so hard to find a psychiatrist , the only type of doctor who can diagnose a patient and is covered by OHIP, to do regular follow up with patients in Toronto. It costs 200 dollar a session to see a psychologist and over a 100 to see a psychotherapist, and psychiatrists can only be referred by your family doctor and I only got to see a psy...chiatrist for one time and they said they don't need to see me again.

 

does anyone know anything about seeing a psychiatrist, not just a therapist or a counsellor?
