I want to go back to see my doctor about my medications. I want to tell him that I don't think they are working any more because I am feeling worse.
Worse means I spend most of my days in bed sleeping and watching mindless television. Also I have lost the will to do anything these days and I don't see a future.
But the thing is that I am scared to approach my doctor about it all, also I wouldn't know how to breach the topic to him as well.

How did you bring it up to get on the ones you are on now? are you seeing a regular doc or a Pdoc? It may be time for a Pdoc if you are seeing your regular Dr.

Your doctor is there to help you, and if what is being done isn't helping, you just come out and say so. There is nothing to be afraid of. Just tell him how you've been doing on these meds and your concerns. Don't be scared to tell your doctor anything. He's there to help you, and if you don't tell him what isn't helping, he can't do that for you.

Hope you feel better soon and can figure out, with your doctor's help, a better treatment plan.
