has anyone else gone through this kind of trial-and-error with meds...
been taking antidepressants prescribed by a general doctor at my local clinic, but honestly... they’re barely doing anything for me anymore
at first things actually felt like they were getting a bit better, but then my OCD kept relapsing hard... like, a full week of non-stop relapsing while i was still on the first dose. my doctor ended up giving me a second round of the exact same med, but tbh, it’s still not helping at all
the most frustrating part is that an online psychiatrist from health app actually prescribed me meds specifically for OCD, but NONE of the pharmacies in my entire province stock them??? i’d literally have to travel to another island just to buy them, which is why i’m stuck taking basic antidepressants from the local clinic instead.
ik i need to tell my doctor next time i visit about the fact the med do nothing, but i’m just so exhausted and nervous to bring it up
The entire process with medications is frustrating because it can actually take awhile for one to work for you. I have bipolar type 1 and the medications I kept getting trialed on made me worse until I was finally able to settle on one- unfortunately it might just be a long process. Some doctors say to just wait it out for a bit and if it really is......
