Professionals do my head in
I finally got to speak to the #Psychiatrist today. He'd spoken to the pharmacist to get their opinion on my meds. He thinks the #Antidepressants may be interacting with each other & there's a risk of #Serotoninsyndrome so I'm coming off the #Sertraline .
Psychiatrist says it's more likely that I have #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder than #Depression . I had a look at the symptoms & it seems to make sense but I'm not looking forward to weaning off the sertraline & the amitryptyline. All through the conversation I was in tears & told him what I've been like in the past before I changed meds. I just wish these f***ing health professionals could make up their minds as to what my diagnosis is. #Depression , #BipolarDepression , #recurringdepressivedisorder , #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder ... Christ, just shut your eyes & stick a pin in the diagnosis dictionary.
I kind of see his point: if the sertraline is meant to stop me feeing like this & it's not doing the trick & there's also a risk of a serious side effect, then maybe it's best, but ...
