Do see a pdoc but don't worry, this will improve as you get onto the proper medications. Best wishes to you. We have all been where you are!

I will, I have an appointment for the 3rd of September, I'll try to hang in there until then, but I have the number if I can't, thank you.

Just be honest with your pdoc .. You do have a say when it comes to what medications you will and wont take ..Its your right to do so.

I'm going to have to, its been awkward because I have had an ED that I'm not completely over and that's really preventing me from trying anythin with weight gain listed as an issue. They gave me an appointment by the 3rd of September so unless it gets really bad again I'll hold on til that. The only problem is that is my mum's birthday. I'm just worried incase an AP sedates me, makes me put my guard down, and I gain loads of weight from it without realising.
