Without the meds, you would probably get even less sleep which would just increase your anxiety, paranoia, etc. so probably best to take them

Also, you should NOT feel ashamed to reach out to your pdoc between appts.
That's what he's there for. I never hesistate to call my pdoc even if it's the day after I JUST had an appt or the day before the next appt and things have spiralled down for me. Sometimes I go several months not having to call between appts though that is rare for me.
