well i was seeing a psych for depression and anxiety, she diagnosed me with bipolar1 and had me on, 40mg of lexapro, 300mg of lamicatal, 225mgs of effexor, and i was on that combo for like 6 months, well it stopped working and i started feeling really depressed again. So my apt was on Thursday and i couldn't wait to get there and tell her how i was feeling cause it was so bad.
and all i did was suggest that we try a diff combo, i told her i was reading online about wellbutrin and that my friend was on abilify and it was working really good for her and asked her how she felt about trying something else...well she got very mad and said im the one with the MD you don't call the shots around here!and maybe i should go to my friends Dr then. i said im not calling the shots Ive been working with you for months on this set of meds and its just not helping anymore and im severely depressed and havent been feeling right. Then she started yelling its all me! that really made me feel good. I practically had to beg her to refill my scripts one more time so i can ween myself off the stuff.
this is my 2nd bad exp with a psych, i think they are all nuts and im done with them! i went to my family dr and told him how my main complaint was anxiety and how she put me on all those meds and it wasnt helping, so he prescribed me ativan, 1 pill! and its working better than any other pill and its much better on my liver than taking the amount of pills she had me on.
im going to try to fight the depressive feelings on my own once again, i ordered some vitamins and started meditating daily, so far so good. im going to fight it with all i got.
