Hi all! I just took a little breaky on posting for awhile I just wanted to check in and say hello. So hello. I hope you're all doing well. My doc. just upped my zoloft yesterday from 50 to 100 mg a day. I asked if there was anything I could take in conjuncion with it for anxiety attacks since I have been have some bad shaking episodes. She said she could give me a few xanax but they are addicting and she did'nt want to. So I left with nothing for it. GRRR. I think it's because I'm 20 (look 16) and she probably just thinks I'm gonna go sell em or something (that's what my mom said).So my next appt. in 4 weeks I'm taking my mom in with me (she's my backbone). Okay well gotta go just wanted to update you. See ya.

And nice to see you. Pdocs can be idiots sometimes. Print out some posts from the med board on the difference between medical dependence and addiction. Sigh. It's a shame we have to do their work for them.

It's not that you look 16 that your Pdoc thinks you're going to sell your meds.
My 76 year old mother fights constantly with doctors of various specialities over her meds. She had a heart attack, open heart surgery, and had a cancerous kidney removed. She takes a fist full of meds.
She told me that they treat her like she's going to sell it on the street corner. What's really ridiculous is that my father is a pharmacist and they act like he knows nothing about her meds.
Crazy.
