CherryBlossom Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 With my new psychiatrist and his boss. I told them Oh my doctor put me on seroquel and zyprexa before to help with my anxiety and depression. They were convinced I must have had psychotic break because those meds are only uses for psychosis. Who are they fucking kidding? It's also used for mood disorders...bipolar or depression. Anyone had a weird experience like this just because they have been on the heavier drugs to help their mood and anxiety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tired tammy Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Did they prescribe the meds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt07 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yes, I once went to a GP who insisted that I had bipolar disorder based on the meds I take. She would not listen at all to me and apparently never heard of mood stabilizers being used in monopolar depression. She made me feel like I was stupid and didn't even know my own diagnosis.

They tagged teamed me and thought they could manipulate me into agreeing with their viewpoint. But on the other hand I have seen how much I have grown and developed as a person. I took on an authoritative factual person and didn't back down. I really have grown to the point that I understand who I am and what I am dealing with, not allowing anyone to tell me how I feel or tell me my experience. To me that shows a major growth spurt and I think I understood how all my past experience in the last year has made me grow. I couldn't identify it until this encounter where I had to stand against two males who were bullies at the end of the day. Think I will write this in my journal/diary.
