Thank for your reply ... its nice to see I'm not alone on the boat.
I'm sort of lucky because my therapist is nice but my doctor is a total idiot.
Last time I went in he basically asked me if I wanted to a) stop the Seroquel, b)keep going like it was or c) increase the dosage.
HELLO????
Who's the one with Dr. in front of his name? He made it sound like it didn't matter although it turned me into a zombie. So I just quit one day ... good thing it has no side effects.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Effexor and I'm sort of afraid to talk to him about it. The main reason I feel its not working is that I'm crying for no reason and I feel suicidal daily ... I'm afraid that if I tell him that I'll end up with another evaluation at the Psy. Hospital and / or a trip to the ER. Both of which I hated.
Its so insane (no pun intended) that the system scares us into lying. I mean when I saw the pdoc at the Psy Hosp. I never would have told him about my visual hallucinations and SI because I was totally scared of being kept there since they make you sign a form that says you agree to be treated BEFORE they tell you what they think you have and how to go about "curing" it (if there is such a thing).
Save me a space on that beach will ya?
