Why would your Doctor want to fool around with Psych meds ? They just are not qualified for handling psych meds

Also maybe you dont need to be on such a high dose, Its best to gauge the meds doseage on how your feeling and funtioning, not on a number goal.

I'm not a Doctor but in the past when I was in a situation like this I would skip a dose here or there to just make it to the Pdoc appt.

I still havent understood why so many people are tossed on AP's for depression I get the whole "Bipolars often cant take AD"s or mania can follow" but there are other options.

I don't know what if any other meds your on.. But Maybe your Pdoc needs to review them with you and then both of you agree to a treatment plan that isn't going to turn you into a Zombie before Halloween even gets here

Be your own best advocate
