I told my psychiatrist about my symptoms and he said "You're not that bad, I had one lady who had 4 kids, none with her husband, she left for 2 weeks and came back pregnant every time." That was after I told him how I punched my friends and kicked in their door in a drunken rage. That made me feel worse because it doesn't help my symptoms and I feel discredited. Should I find a new psychiatrist?

I would feel discredited, too. Awful therapist. I've dealt with many like this. Even saying I'm their favorite client meaning "I'm not as bad as the others..." makes me feel like I'm not taken seriously.
I would find a new one because he just told you confidential stuff about another client. That's a big no no

I would find a new psychiatrist. They shouldn't be discrediting you like that. You see them for help with your psychological problems, not to have them ignored. I would, but that's me.
