HS...I wouldn't go so far as to advise that Tam stop taking her meds...i do think that maybe seeing a Psychiatrist would be best as they (not Psychologists) can actually prescribe medications..
...
Oops, thanks Lin for the correction I was actually thinking in my mind I needed to write psychiatrist I don't know why psychologist came out instead, although some with a PhD and proper training can prescribe a few depending on the state. I know that she can not stop now due to withdrawal, I am just worried she is using them as a fix it all and the drugs are not really helping. She has to deal with these feelings instead of surpressing them or they will not lose their magnitude. When I read what you posted about the suicidal effects it really got me worried. So many people take medicine for granted.
Tam you seem to be by yourself a lot. If something were to happen there would be no one to call an ambulance for you. It is time you share with somebody so you have someone checking on you on a regular basis and someone who can sit with you to help you cope. Many people have already told you this please take the advice it is not going to make you look like a bad person becaue H left. It is not a reflection of you not being a supportive wife and you should not be embarassed. You need to reach out to frineds and family, that is what they are there for.
