rockstarrr13,I have been on medication for years and a small dose of these medications should not rob you of control of your body however talk it through with your Dr. again. I suspect your Dr. is at a loss as what to do to help you when you don't try his plan of care for you.
To take or not to take medications is a very personal decision. What else are you doing to decrease your anxiety ?
I have always been one to say yes to every request but finally I am learning to say no as I must put my health and mental well being first.
If you want to say no, be firm and direct. Use phrases such as “Thanks for coming to me but I’m afraid it’s not convenient right now” or “I’m sorry but I can’t help this evening.” Try to be strong in your body language and don’t over-apologize. Remember, you’re not asking permission to say no.
Take care of you,
Kitt
