Maybe you should have went and seen a shrink first.

When the VA put me on mindfck drugs, I had to see a couple different shrinks/therapists first.

I was basically hoping for a referral to a shrink (my insurance requires referrals for everything). He wouldn't even give me that.

I'm still baffled at him calling you a drug-seeker. Maybe I'm just getting old, but I didn't realize kids were using anti-depressants to get high.

You would only go to the doctor for depression for three things:
1) Drugs
2) Advise
3) referral to a shrink

Yep, that one slipped by me, but I am a bastion of mental health so I am unfamiliar with such things.

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.

Doc's advice: suck it up

Not very good advice.



What does he know... he's just a doctor.

most anti-depressants prescribed are ssri's snri's,etc..........

at least you have to usually get prescribed those first and if they dont work then they prescribe the "narcotic" drugs. they dont go around willy-nilly prescribing out valium, lithium, and other mind altering drugs as a first treatment.

LOL, you cant get high on lithium, and it isnt a narcotic. If you want to vomit, shake and feel like someone turned your brain down to like 3 then you might go drug-seeking for lithium

i would never lump in valium with lithium. valium is crazy addictive, i've seen some pretty messed up people hooked on them.
