I have to second your two points on finding a seasoned psychiatrist. I also found an extremely good therapist who didn't case judgement on my experiences.

Between the two of them, I was able to take charge of my own treatment and be able to help myself instead of being backed into a corner.

Poor mental health treatment just makes things worse. I have friends who badly need therapy and coping skill but can't get over a therapist who hurt them in the past.
