Oh my God, I agree wholeheartedly . I too trusted dr's. And am now being bombarded with people telling me things like well-, "you should've rsearched this stuff beforehand". Or, well, "you're gonna have to learn to live like this now." Or "hindsight is the best teacher" Or the dr's not having a clue what is going on now. My $30 Hmo mistake ( LONG STORY BY the way), has now cost upwards of $20,000+ .And I believe I am permannently damaged. I am experiencing everything you said too.My posts are previously on
July 14 "Have Life Altering Effect on Celexa/Ativan, " and july 15 " Has Anyone Lost Emotions On SSRI's?" It's only some of the story cause it'd take to long. I have a new theory on family physicians prescribing medicine too quickly without getting all the facts and not being "educated" as to what could Possibly happen on these pills- My new theory is "WATCH YOUR OWN BACK - cause No One will". It's a pretty bad commentary in the day of the Hmo, when medicine has really changed in the past 10 years to the point that drs are so quick and some are truly uneducated. I'm not talking about psych. who are completly educated on these drugs. I mean the local Dr primary who's cluless.The pharmaceutical companies- well let me tell you - I live near Smith kline/ Glaxo. -ANd I pass Wyeth on the way to my psych., and they are constant reminders that I trusted a primary physcian with my HEALTH. I regret not doing research first. It may kill me -this regret.
