medication go back to normal after overdose

Amazonianup

Hi scope,

Im worried that after i failed to overdose on my meds while i failed to get through to samaritans im worried this is going to effect my prescriptions. I explained my regret and there has been distance since i failed this attempt. I truely repent. I still struggle and i with help i was discussed to go prescribed diazapam weekly. (fine i have these and i said i would slow drinking)

The thing is my other meds im low on and been out of on weekend give med withdrawl and of well lets say it made me feel a bit like a teenager again and i mistook this for feeling completely better too soon. You know like a bit too much dopamine. but if i go without my meds i put request in for today as they are controlled drugs I will get worse symptoms and receptionist didnt seem to want to push this through. i explained to gp and pharmacy just encase but i just have this dread its not gonna work out okay.

Obviously on the 6 march i took the meds and alchol i didnt exactly count the meds i took and cruched up. but my prescription is now due early. Has anyone else had trhis problem?

god bless

Hi @Amazonianup. I'm so sorry that you're struggling at the moment. How long do you usually have to wait until you find out if your prescription is approved? They might want to see you in person to see how you're doing as they'll want you to be safe.

How are you feeling now?

I've sent you an email so be on the lookout for it.

The usual person i see isnt there thats why im worrying. ie another gp might read my notes and say oh im not gonna prescribe that due to risk labels on meds and play safe but also stop my prescription. I have my diazapam (little iv been given) and i have some other med left that i can increase in my own discretion i just dont want it held against me. Im trying to do right think im just hectic iv been eating junk food because iv found it hard to hold down food in day and food goes off in my fridge. I have dishes to do im gonna try and do its just i dont want to get caught off guard again and my emotions go another way.

If they read your notes I feel like they'll contact you to speak to you in person rather than just stopping your prescription. They should understand that you can't just stop taking your tablets without side effects. Do you think it would be a good idea to book a GP appointment considering how you're feeling? Don't push yourself to do housework if you're not up to it, you need to be kind to yourself. Do you have anyone that could pop round to see you?

Ah yh no worries i had a little bit of difficulty but got sorted. Im in purgatory for a while and hopefully i can pick up my meds no difficulty weekly rather than monthloy. But i was right i nearly didnt get issued all my meds correctly.
