Mental Health What do they do at a E.R when you go in there because of anti depressants?

[lalapanda]

I'm going crazy right now
this medicine i'm on is making me so stressed and my anxiety worse and im literally about to fucking slit my wrists like no fucking joke and like i'm having migraines and the advice nurse told me to come in but like what are they going to do?

First they will give you a mild sedative.Then they will send a Psychiatrist in to talk to you,to see if you need admitting.Then they will refer a psych doctor to see in the future.They may prescribe something for you when you leave,like a relaxer or antidepressant but that i'm unsure of.This of course was my experience,but believe is the universal protocol

You should definitely go in now. Let them help you sort this out. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Don't try to do this alone.

thank you so much!

go to the er, they will help you get sorted out. i'm a RN, sometimes work in ER, have seen lots of ppl on antidepressants have troubles like you're describing, more common than you may think.
best of luck to you
