I need to make a counseling appointment; I think I need more coping techniques to learn to deal with my thoughts rather than throwing more meds at it. Im taking a very low dose too, and dont wanna increase it just yet. --- she's a killer queen~ Lyonidiias.sarahah.com <cite>_Lyonidias posted [p:914115664] in So I'v...

Some doctors are prideful and think they're patience don't know shit. Ive had my share. I had a doctor tell me I lost 15 pounds cause his scale was broken. And still questioned me about it after I told him how I know for a fact I didn't. I weigh 130 pounds, if I lost 15 it would be noticable. Dude must of been on something</quote> ...
