Brief Answer:
Sit down, and tell him all your worries in details and calmly...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.
First, you should sit down and explain your new psychiatrist what you feel especially when you take the medicine.
If I was your caring doctor would ask more frequent follow ups to evaluate the impact of the meds you are currently taking.
In this way, your new psychiatrist would understand better your needs and health situation, so, can change the dose and medications more accurately.
So, do not be afraid to talk to him about your worries. Just sit down, calmly start talking about all your worries and how you feel when taking the meds.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can help you further.
