When you see a psychiatrist please be aware that they can, without your knowledge or permission, write to your GP with full and frank details of your discussions. These letters can also end up in outside hands such as an insurance company, if you give them permission to have your GP records. You can ask to see your entire GP's records under the Data Protection Act and request anything you like to be withheld. So please make clear when you see a psychiatrist that you would want to be informed if that is a matter of procedure for them.
