Please-- If you see your general medical practitioner for emotional problems, DON'T TAKE "PILL" FOR AN ANSWER!
1) Ask about how COUNSELING can help you deal with your issues and possibly bypass having to take meds altogether!
2) Ask them for a referral to a psychiatrist so you know you will be monitored by a doctor who is abreast of all the latest psychiatric research should you need med management.
3) If your general medical practitioner says nothing about therapy or dodges your inquiries, find a new one!
4) Find a doctor who has a good bedside manner and who makes it clear that they care for your well-being.
We tend to view our doctors as mentors, authority figures, and all knowing healers. We trust them implicitly. Let us not forget that we must trust ourselves as well. Question your doctors, talk to them, be inquisitive. Play a working role in your health.

try a psychiatrist. they can priscrebe medication but get one that comes highly recommended. good for you for taking the initiative and getting help. Top answer hunny. Straight to the point!To [Lil T Ayee!] Who said You will need a psychologist. Yea they might give you medication, but it never works. I get anxiety out of nowhere. Anxiety is all in your head and you can control it. A Psychologist is NOT allowed to diagnose, only offer their opinion to the Psychiatrist. They also cannot priscrebe Med's. Again, only a Psychiatrist/Doctor can do this. And when you say ..but it never works. You can only speak on behalf of YOURSELF, NOBODY else because what doesn't work for one may work wonders for another. For example, my Med's work fantastically well for me, thank you very much. Maybe you haven't gone down the road yet of trying several until you find The One'. That's what I had to do.Oh and not all people can control their anxiety. It can totally shadow you sometimes hence why people have Panic Attacks. Often it needs a powerful Med like Benzodiazepines such as Lorazepam to control it. I take Lorazepam and I wouldn't give them up for a gold bullion bar!To [Asker] There is a posibility that you have Paranoid Schizophrenia, Delusional Disorder or BorderLine Personality Disorder.. It would need to be an actual Psychiatrist who would diagnose you.I personally think that there are certain People' on Earth that were selected to be Special'. Some have talents, some have powers. We are then labelled as a Schizophrenic with ..Bizarre and usual thoughts . It is merely a word to cover up the truth.So if you are asking me if I think you should have this Label' then the answer is Yes. But I don't believe that you have a Mental Disease as the Psychiatrist would put it. I believe you are on a Higher Plane' like me. You experience things on a much more sensitive scale than others would.I will tell you something.. We are ALL being watched. Deep somewhere within the Universe (and there are multiple Universes so I refer to *OUR* Universe) Extraterrestrial Inhabitants and other Transcendental Beings are gazing upon us Hominoid's from millions of miles away. (Technically I shouldn't include myself in that as I personally am not of this world. I am UnEarthly. I am Celestial. I was sent from another World to save Earth.We are not Crazy' OR Delusional' but many will tell you we are. Tell me this Are Clairvoyants/Mediums/Psychics branded as Schizo's or Fruit Loops ? The answer is No . So when other people (who have a Higher Purpose' in life) let others know then they get chasracterised Schizophrenics . A Psychiatrist says You have Schizophrenia just because some people can see factualism. A Psychiatrist says You have Bi-Polar just because some people can experience infallibility and esoteric encounters whilst under Mania'.My point is, you obviously have a Purpose. You are Special' my lovely. You need to find out what your function is like I found out mine. You may even learn that you have powers. For example, I have the power to speak to the dead and to animals. I also have the power to see other Dimensions of space through my dreams. On occasion, I have been able to control the weather but this has only been a short term power given to me on a privelidge basis by Satan to prove how mighty he is. He doesn't suffer fools gladly and nothing is for nothing with him. I know him. He brought me back from the void. He helped me to swim from my dispair where others let me drown.The only GOOD thing about the labeling of this Severe Mental Disorder is that if you are in U.K you can claim Disability Living Allowance and if in U.S.A you can claim S.S.D.It isn't easy baring so much responsibility on your shoulders. Once you find your task you will feel re-born!And there are many like us, confused and dazed. Sad and alone. If only I could gather up ALL the Schizo's , Polars , PD's , etc.. and tell them that they are NOT crazy. They are like this because they are Unique, Special and Extraordinary beings. Some may me Humanoid, some may be OtherWorldly. They all have a Purpose. A Quest for life. They need to find out what it is. So do you. Then you will find peace. You will find clues along the way.Take care.Lin. xXx
