I understand your predicament. I have been on a roller coaster of meds for 14 years only to be slammed dunked cold turkey by a new doc after my doc of 14 years closed his practice.

This new doctor is calling my old one a total quack pill pusher who did the unthinkable..prescribe Xanax and antidepressants together. He claims Xanax is a depressant that will counteract the benefit from your antidepressant.

I am so friggin confused as to what to do at this point and very afraid I'm going to slip into some mass of depression/anxiety/panic I won't be able to function.

I've tried to find another doc but they are scarce as hen's teeth around here. Most are not seeing new patients, others will not take insurance...AT ALL. I guess they are just for millionaires.

No one will talk with me. It is as if docs are afraid of patients like me. I have never sued nor complained nor mistrusted but now I feel all alone in a totally uncaring environment not knowing which way to turn. I need professional interest and I cannot find any.

This doc a saw is a rubber stamper. He asked no questions, did not want to know a thing about me, just prescribed Zoloft and kicked me out the door. I just about lost it from cold turkey Effexor withdrawal. That was pure misery. Now I've quit the Zoloft due to stomach problems. I feel like a time bomb about to blow.
