oh yes...I have a psychiatrist -- FINALLY got in with one who didn't schedule me once every 4-6 months. I am seeing him monthly right now while we're changing medications around.
And my therapist knows about it...that was just my therapist's diagnosis. She knows about the nightmares. I am sure she just has the singular diagnosis for insurance purposes...I don't know. I kind of want to discuss it with her. It's funny because I will tell her that I don't have an eating disorder, and she gives me a look...can't seem to convince her of it.
My psychiatrist had four listed...I don't remember the code, so I don't remember if the depression was severe or moderate. Also PTSD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (i think), and Eating Disorder NOS.
My friend suggested calling the psychiatrist's office to see if I can get in sooner. I don't know. I just took my last dosage of the pristiq on Sunday - was tapering down off of 100mg/day. (10 days at 50mg/day, then 10 days of 50mg every other day to nothing). I started the cymbalta 30mg 2x/day when I dropped to the every other day pristiq.
