Is this more OCD or am I losing touch with reality?

So sorry Adaptive. Thinking of you.

Yes, it is always an unfortunate possibility that a drug or a certain dosage or combination just really doesn't agree with us, and that is not the same as worrying too much about miniscule risks. So your doctor really should understand and help out when you tell him this.

Hope you can be functioning better soon. Man you're a brave trooper fighting hard with these difficulties impacting your ability to work. Hope it is possible to take some sick days if you need to, as you carry on sorting things out....?

Hugs! xx

I'm seriously so hopeless when it comes to advocating for myself at the doctor. The family doctor of mine won't stop me on seroquel as he thinks it needs to be an adjunct to my anti depressant, despite the psychiatrist telling him I need to be on a high dose of an ssri, he only has me at 50 and said he won't up it for another month. I tried to get him to do it but he wouldn't.

So I thought I would quit seroquel on my own and just take the Zoloft but that dose won't do much. I guess I will have to find a new doctor. I was thinking of going across to the US to see if I can find a doctor there that would prescribe me an ssri. This is so much more complicated than it needs to be, why can't I be more firm with my doctor?

I just read this again and I shouldn't be so obsessed, I guess I can wait another month for a dosage change, I've been like this my whole life, what's another month at this point.
