Made an appointment to see my psychiatrist

I’m really struggling with anger and extremely negative thoughts that are increasing in severity over time. I’m going to ask about a med adjustment like adding a mood stabilizer or something, whatever the pdoc recommends.

I’m currently taking 5mg of asenapine 2x/day, and 20 mg of Celexa once a day.

Sorry to hear that @LilyoftheValley. I know it feels better to talk about it, so expressing your feelings even here it is good… probably is good to talk to you therapist as well

Maybe it’s related to your family treating you poorly like you mentioned the other day and you need to process that and act adequately.

I don’t think it’s helpful for your mental health to just accept abuse.

You’re right @TheFountainPen @Davincii . But I was getting super down and irritable before the family stuff. I was just able to hide it. But I feel really really terrible about myself. I’m talking about it in therapy and in group therapy which I started 3 weeks ago (started individual therapy I believe 5 weeks ago). But I think I need a med adjustment to help me a bit because of how bad I feel.

I hope your psychiatrist can help you @LilyoftheValley

All you may need is a small med adjustment

Yeah. I think a small adjustment might help too. I trust my pdoc so that helps.

Good luck with your meds! I hope it goes very smoothly and your dr gets you something to start feeling better! I just started an adjustment. I started vilazodone. It’s good that you trust your dr. Good luck to you! @ZmaGal
