I’m so sad because I definitely know that my doctor doesn’t care. I’ve called and emailed about medication problems to the point of almost having to go to the ER and 2 calls with the pharmacist who tried to help me. Nothing except telling me the computers are down when I was trying to call about a cancellation.

I don’t know what to do.

I also considered that maybe my pdoc finally trusts me to be okay.

But I’m also worried that my T doesn’t want to deal with me anymore and wants to get rid of me.

Hope I'm sorry you are still having med issues. It seems like this has been going on for awhile. You see your pdoc/T every Wed right? What did he say at your last visit? What did the pharmacist say? For us to give you any advise on "what to do" we need a few more facts.

I don't belueve that your pdoc/T does mot care but you yourself have repeatedly confirmed that he does. Try to hang in there until your next session so you can get some answers. Take care. Hugs.
Thanks for this!

I wasn’t able to go last week because of a bad tire on my car so I haven’t had a session since I started back on the med samples.

I first called a pharmacist to ask them whether the medicine could case crying and worse depression and she said it was possible that it was a side effect of that medicine.

I cried for two days straight. This was last week.

This morning, I called the pharmacist to ask him what to do about the nausea because I’ve been nauseous 3 days in a row.

I also asked him if it was possible that I have too much serotonin in my brain because I’ve been taking 2 antidepressants and Seroquel at bedtime.

I also asked him if maybe I should possibly ask my doctor if I can switch to a different medicine category because I have too many side effects from antidepressants.

He advised me about what to try to minimize nausea until I see my doctor.

He said that it would be a good idea to let the office know ahead of the appointment.

I haven’t slept in 2 days.

I’m barely keeping my head above water.

I can explain better when I can. Right now, I’m battling both physical and emotional struggles.

Seroquel is a strong drug, and should be helping you. I hope pdoc gets you stabilized with meds that work. T's might not respond to medication issues quicklt bctheir hands are tied there? It seems like you have a good team, and you should try never to miss a session .

If he is not responding to you, you can see your primary care doctor for an issue like this. I have done this once when I couldn't reach my psychiatrist. I went to my PCP and got the help I needed.
