how I was trapped by my doctor

[stan]

sorry bad english
hello all
I'm kind of anxious ever since I live with quite well and full of energy projects, I work, I'm married
45 years I'm a little panic, the 1st, I was panicked (heart attack) and an electrocardiogram done in hospital emergency
I was told everything is fine, it's just fear, it gives you lexomil = anxiolytic, I said no thank you.
I go to my doctor for something else, he will ask me?
I said I had a little panic and I do not want a stamp, it gives me a prescription for something else and paxil and tell me
to take half a week and the seal around the following week,
I go back to the pharmacy and the seals foolishly begins to take paxil
the following month, more than paxil, I returned for my character and he adds Dogmatil neuroleptic, I go back and read the leaflet side effects
and I said "what do I have to take as serious Dogmatil" I was scared and I did not take but stayed on paxil since I took it for a month
at the time: no internet
after 3 years, during holidays the doctor, his replacement makes me order 3 months renewable (so I no longer needed to see my doctor for
3 months and did not have paid his visit)
3 months ago, I went back for my fix, and then pay for a month, so I paid him his monthly visit every month for 10 years
and after I changed my doctor continued to prescribe for a month
when a doctor prescribed Paxil for a patient, the patient returns to get his dose every month and it makes a life annuity to the doctor
after 13 years I put an end to this madness created by my trust in doctors, no help from them to wean me, they want to prescribe other AD
but thanks to Internet and testimonies of people like me.

paxil before, I was very well I lived
for it was getting worse,
after paxil, I have many problems but I'm better

bye

I understand your frustration and anger. I went through the same thing. Except, unfortunately, I didn't read the information (or understand the little bit I got from the pharmacy) and ended up on 4 drugs by the end.

I went to the doctor when I was 24 years old with 2 little kids and a mean alcholic husband. I was understandably depressed. That led to a diagnosis of a "chemical imbalance" and medication. That medication led to another diagnosis of "Attention Deficit Disorder" and another med, which led to the diagnosis of "bipolar" and a third type of med.

I went to the same psychiatrist every 3 months for 8 years. I tried to get off meds and complained of side effects and was talked into switching to others and different combos instead. It was a battle for my mind.
