I'm not referring to dependence to a controlled subtance or a known addictive substance ( that's a whole other ball game), but I'm talking about your "nonaddictive" psych meds. I personally think that I do. Here's why.
My anxiety and fear is climbing (with anticipation of an event that will happen in early february). I know that's why I'm so stressed and feel so uneasy. I know that's what's happening.. yet my first thought it "My meds aren't working". I know there isn't a "make your problems go away" pill, and while medicine can only do so much, in conjunction with therapy it still falls a bit short sometimes.
I'm scared to death about how to approach the next few weeks. I'm scared to death and I go between wanting to cry to trying to sleep all the time. I guess it's something I just have to fight through. It's not like my medicine stopped doing its job on me (it's added stress in my life that's masking its effects). I'm almost sure of it. God help me through this time.
