I've been trying to get a referal to a therapist however, I am expecting and since I am under the care of my OB mostly they seem hesitant to send me to someone. Mostly I think this may be because my insurance doesn't cover this kind of treatment. (I am trying to find someone on my own and see what I can do to get in for treatment. I have severe anxiety and find myself obsessing about my spouse and questioning him relentlessly.)
So in the meantime, they keep trying me on different anxiety medications. I tried Celexa which made me have some odd thoughts like rage and I really felt just restless. Like I might possibly hurt someone I loved. Don't know why that happened but that ONLY happened on the medication. I just told the OB that it made me feel loopy. I didn't tell them the entire extent of it - guess I should have but they treat you like you are a nut of sorts when you're at the ob and you're talking about this kind of stuff.
Long story short, sorry for the longwinded-ness of the above . . . she gave me something generic for prozac. It's 10 mg and she said that I could take it "as needed". In other words, it's a pill I don't have to take everyday. But I read up online and most sites say you should take it everyday at the same time.
So my question is, can you take prozac as needed? After the scary response to the first medication I'm a bit anxious about trying this in the first place and I really don't want to start out on the wrong foot when I DO start taking it.
:thankyou2:
