The doc understands PTSD fairly well. Shes the one that changed my dx from major depression to PTSD.
I think she may be afraid of the andrenergic effects of the drug making the stress response worse, or worry that I need an SSRI to calm me down. I see no other reason why she would have legitimate issues with it. What I really suspect is that its a control struggle, touched off by contridicting her statements regarding these drugs. For example, saying cymbalta doesnt cause weight gain. I got a lot of flack for correcting that.
Ive got issues with SSRI weight gain, I really dont want to be on them any longer.
I was having some success with topamax and she took me off that too. Said my hyper-responding to a small dose was all in my head.
yeah Ill be looking for a new doc soon.
