Well.........

My GP told me to go back to my pshyciatrist and tell him EXACTLY how I felt. He feels that I am NOT getting him to understand what is going on with me.

If he won't prescribe something, he would. But he didn't want to go behind his back. Which I can see. But I have been trying to talk to him for the past 3 days and haven't been able to. Now the weekend..........have to wait until Monday to try again. It is fustrating when you can't talk to him when you need to. I've already talked to my therapist and his nurse..............

I really know that this is starting to effect my marriage and I don't think I should have to live like this................

I know that this is distressing to you. Unfortunately, we have no way of changing your doctor's orders. Others have faced their anxiety without benzodiazepines. Using the SSRI's or other antidepressants can help tremendously. Have you considered changing your focus & learning new ways to cope? I am worried that you're thinking about this too much. There's a point when finding acceptance with things we cannot change is the best route.


As for your marriage, what does your therapist say about the situation? What suggestions have been made? There is always
