Hiya i am in some serious need of
Any advice, serious advice would be greatly appreciated. Its long, im scared and confused and messed up but please if you have the time, i really would appreciate some advice.

I suffer from a series of serious mental health issues. Until now, i have been to strong for to long, and recently sort help, and stuck to it, not just medicating my medications so to speak. I have a interim diagnosis of Bi-polar disorder and Borderline Personality disorder, And confirmed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Severe Anxiety.

I have been on many medications, since my suicide attempts in 08/09 but have never had seen a pyschologist for more then one sessions, or a pyschatrist unless it was at the hospital after attempting suicide.

My GP just seems to had out what medications i want, so i would walk out with valium xanax, alepam and mogadon. As well as Tramal 50's and authority for 100 200mg SR tramal.

Ive been on the two tramal now for almost seven years, with only a ten month break, whilst pregnant.

I dont take it everyday, but i will take it to get high, and ill take anywhere between 6-10 200mgs at one dose..

I am on effexor XR 300 mg and seraquil 100mg i hate seraquil i use to abuse it along with zyprexa to make be feel numb three years ago but now regular doseage of the seraquil fucks my head makes me all cloudy in the morning. So i stopped usage of the seraquil about a month ago. I have been seeing the same GP at the same clinic for a good half of my life.

This year my depression has sunk to a alltime low again and i broke up with my long time significant other, i relapsed and started abusing my xanax and valium. And the alepam, i have a bad dental problem and often get oxycodone for it, i attempted suicide at the start of the year. By over doseing and i am literally lucky to be alive, i had 40 endone and 60 alepam, it wasnt premeditated. it just happened.

I self harmed for the first time in 11 years since i was sexually assulted as a teenager.

After all of this my GP continues to prescribe these medications. 5 months later a patient died of hers involving xanax valium sleeping tablets and oxycodone/oxycontin dont know if this patient is on all of them, or which one it was she just said she wont be prescribing them to me anymore due to her being on the name of the drugs that he O'd on

She has left on leave and will be back at the end of the month where i will be seeing her for my dental care plan to be finished.

no other dr will prescribe me my medications because they say its a lethal cocktail, so ive been un medicated,

I am seeing a pyschatrist on friday, and i dont know what to say to him.

My effexor isnt working, im IV using my valium and xanax and went thru 50 of each in 3 days. Ive also started to IV the oxycontin and am about to have my last one. Ive never IV'd before it started 2 months ago with valium and xanax, and then i stopped, a wk later life became hard,relapsed and i havent stopped. I cant get my repeats filled because they were only done 5 days ago for my xanax.

I have no Oxy's left for my pain, and ive been on them pretty much flat out for 24 days now with severe dental pain :'( I wish i never made the decision to IV and i am disgusted in myself for doing so. As my mother was a smack addict and prostitute and abandoned me as a baby, i lost a uncle to drugs, and many friends i always said that id never IV, now i am and im doing it myself and i have to stop. :X :!

Thing is im in severe pain, my mouth is seriously stuffed, and i am awaiting the dental plan through medicare, as stated. but i have to wait another 12 days until its done, and then for medicare to approve it.

do i be honest and tell someone about this problem, what help is available? to someone like me. Or do i just suffer it out??? and try not to. :|


Has my GP neglected me, by allowing so many addictive medications for so long, so frequently??

I havent been able to sleep for days, my mind just wont shut down.

I am so Broken scared and confused.
 
very sorry to hear you going through that much pain, I had it not long ago getting 4 wisdom teeth ripped out but putting up with it for months before I could! but there is plenty of help out there for you! :) here's one place, but also many other around where people can go and seek help, assistance, advice or guidence.

Trust me when I say I've had quite a few very close friends who have had the same unfortunate situation as yourself, I son't sugar coat it, you gotta have will power to do it and I believe you do, and to not give up hope and keep throwin punches.

I hope you have some people close to you who you can talk with aswell as it helps, anyway this place is full of awesome people so I hope even being able to get that off your chest is a start :) take care
 
No you never need to suffer it out. There are plenty of options, hope other bl'er can help.

Psych can prescribe meds too, go see the psych more than one time. You need the help from a psych, not only do I and im sure others will agree, turning to drugs isnt the solution to depression/PTSD/bi-polar

Its up to you to decide what you want to do, but your drug taking has turned into a full blown addiction, do you want to stop taking drugs?

Yes I believe your gp has neglected you by allowing you to take all these drugs for such a duration.

I think you might have to consider going into rehab or something that your psych recommends, as you will find it very diffcult to find another gp willing to give u a script for those meds without knowing you or your history well.

You have told us bl'er your story, I dont know if anyone is qualified to help, let alone help you over the internet. You say you dont know what to tell your psych? You have this, if you cant bare to say it, print it out to show him. Even if you cant do that, tell him your a mess, he shoud know where to start.

If you are feeling the need to harm or need someone to talk to, call lifeline 13 11 14.

Hope you cn get help and get well soon

Your GP has been lax in prescribing so many dependence liable drugs without proper monitoring. You definitely need to bring that up with your psychiatrist and discuss options for dependence treatment.

Speak to the psychiatrist about the depression as well; if your current medications are not working you need to look at other options. Is there a reason you haven't stuck with psychologists longer then one session? They can definitely help you with your problems, it will take work and time but it is worth it in the end.
 
You definitely shouldn't be 'suffering it out'. Showing this story to your psych is a good idea, even though it would be scary.

What city are you in? This thread has contacts for opiate withdrawal treatments: though your psych should likely suggest/refer you for this too.

I second the advice to call Lifeline. Another very good service is the online counselling at:

I have a interim diagnosis of Bi-polar disorder and Borderline Personality disorder, And confirmed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Severe Anxiety.

I would suggest Tegretol for bi-polar disorder/a new generation anti psychotic medication for your borderline personality disorder/and paroxetine for anxiety and PTSD. you don't need benzos, they just make the situation worse...benzos are only good in palliative care (as in like people who have cancer and are about to die!).

goddamn dudette, i feel sorry for you...being sexually molested as a young child could be the result of your diagnosis of PTSD.

Who is this doctor? He seriously needs to be de-registered as a medical practitioner!

What I would suggest to you is to go to an inpatient rehabilitation facility, somewhere nice and not too expensive...and explain what your problems are with drugs, especially the benzos, as the withdrawal from them is hell and you need serious medical help asap...maybe you should go and see a drug and alcohol psychiatrist specialist and get referred to an inpatient program where he can monitor your medication/withdrawal with Tegretol...look it up, its an anticonvulsant which also has mood adjustment effects, not that i've tried it!

good luck and warm wishes,
squigz!
 
Psychiatrist is the first step - you can't rehab if your mental health issues are not being attended to. The conditions you are talking about don't go away by themselves. At least get the symptoms treated first to alow yourself a good chance at rehab.

Be honest to yourself first, then to the Psych.
