Did you have a say in your treatment?

Hey guys long time no see. I have been trying to cope with some really hard stuff, but I am feeling a bit better now.

I was wondering the other day... Did you have a say in deciding your treatment? 

I feel like doctors only tell us what will 'cure' us, but never try to give us the chance to understand by ourselves what are we going to take and if we do want that or another thing...

Am I the only one who feels this way?
