So I'm at that moody, womanly time of the month. Only because of the stupid "once every 3 month period" BCP I'm on, it's bee going for a month! (Sorry, tmi). Anyways, aside from some awful cramps, I've been been hanging on a theoretical string emotionally. I've been on this pill for a year and I've never been so....fragile?

I started ADs last may and upp-ed my dose in July or August.

Could it be the upped dose of Cipralex combining with the birth control to make me a hormonal nutcase? Like I seriously can't deal with this if this is my fate every 3 months. I can't even imagine lasting the rest of the week -assuming it ends on time but this stupid pill seriously messes with the timing of those things.

I've tried probably all 8 billion BCPs on the market at this point all of which have caused side effects. I know I need to go see the doctor but it's become such a complicated situation I don't know where to start.
-My GP main doctor I don't like. We don't see eye to eye. No matter what the issue is, "I'm young and healthy and there's no reason to be concerned about anything" is here approach. If I push, "ok come back in 3 months if it's still a problem" But here's the thing, I'm seriously phobic of needles so it takes me like 3 months of having a problem to actually book an appointment after convincing myself that I won't be given a needle when I go. I haven't seen her in a year
-After the **** hit the fan last August, I went to see the school counsellor who reffered me to a doctor on campus. So I've seen him for all of my anxiety related issues. But here's the thing with him. He like half a day every other Tuesday and that half day is during my co-op (work placement) hours.

I was complaining to a friend about how I don't get along with my main doctor and she told me about her's who sounds wonderful. So I've been waiting for her to have an opening for a new patient so I can get all my medical things in one place.

Now I was also on my last refill for BCP which also means that I need my yearly physical. So book it all in one shot right? Physical, birth control issues, AD issues and how they are all mashing together?


Main doctor will probably say "ooo the problem is the AD, lets just stop taking those!"
School doctor is a male and I'm not comfortable with getting my physical done even with a female nurse in the room....just no. And I can't even get a time to see him.
And the new doctor who isn't actually my doctor may never be my doctor because I've been calling for openings since April.

Gahhh I'm just such mess right now! cried myself to sleep every night this week over who even knows what -my wall probably looked at me wrong or something. And I'm just exhausted and don't want to do this anymoooore
