I heard pimozide is really strong and it's used for schizophrenic patients. I asked my psychiatrist what was i diagnosed with (because the fist day he asked me questions to know if i was schizophrenic or delusional like am i suspecting of people around me, do i feel like iwas watched, etc...) and he said I have no mental illness I'm just too sensitive and I think too much (????). Then, why he sends me those meds? Are they also used for anxiety? Why people are so reluctant to tell me WHAT'S UP WITH MY DIAGNOSE?
I don't understand why this Doc has given you prescriptions for these various medications if he thinks you don't have a mental illness. Taking prescription drugs as I well know affect our lives from day to day. Your intuitive thought of finding another doc is probably one you could consider seriously. I would do it as soon as possible as there are side effects with drugs. I have taken many different ones and some of the side effects have not been good. even before taking them, Im not a Doctor however maybe your second opinion will decide whether you should take them or not. I learned that It's my body and mind that is being affected not my doctor's.
