When I was overmedicated they had me on MANY drugs at once. They would start me on lots at a time...does this sound unsafe? It WAS for me! It made me worse off then I was to start with!
This is why I fear psychiatrists (I fear psychologists because they have abused me as well). It is SO hard to trust in my world!
Hubby and I had a LONG talk last night and I decided I have to trust SOMEONE if I am to get help. (My decision...not his). I have ben knowcked down before...but now I need to get well. And I can't do that without a suppport system that includes doctors apsychologist and a psychiatrist. In the event that there IS a chemical imbalance...I will need medication for this. You can't get that any other way. And I will NOT heal if I don't have a level playing field to start with.
So..as scared as I am...I am going to have to trust. NOT recklessly! Hubby will come with me to the psychiatrist. I looked into my psychologists' credentials and she is certified for EMDR. I have to leave the rest in G-d's hands! I have done my part. I have to let it go.
As an aside...this info. about medicating slowly is VERY helpful to me! If a doc tries to go to fast...or doesn't listen to me...I can SWITCH DOCTORS! I'm NOT a child anymore! I don't have to stay with anyone who is abusive because I have no alternative!!!
I cannot thank you all enough for being here for me! (((((((((((((((((IBS Family)))))))))))))))
