Hi Erik, Welcome!
You are really smart to look into the possible effect of your meds etc. Even when we have a dr we trust, it is very important to educate ourselves and stay on top of our med situation. Sometimes the doses or meds do need to be changed and tweaked, and our staying aware of how we are reacting to them can help the dr make the most appropriate changes.
Sometimes we do get a dr who is not willing to take our input seriously, or to work patiently with us to find the most appropriate meds and dosages for our situation. That is really frustrating, and it is worth finding a different doctor, because this is our life, the only one we get and we want the opportunity to live it to the fullest.
While the folks here have WAY more experience than we'd like to abusing drugs, we can't suggest how anyone should USE drugs, it's just not what we are here for. Self medicating is how some of us got started on the path to drug abuse.
We thought we knew how to handle what we were experiencing and began playing dr on ourselves. We only meant to make our lives better, and improve our conditions, but we don't have the perspective or knowledge to do it safely. Many of us figured if a small amount of drug helped a little bit, a bigger amount would help more. That is often NOT the case.
Please talk to your dr and any other caregivers about your situation. If you have an appt scheduled in three months, go ahead and tell them you need to see someone as soon as possible, don't wait, your well being IS important.
Some meds, if taken in higher doses, don't work better, but may cause dangerous or deadly side effects. More isn't always the answer.
Let us know how things are going.
