so i'm about to go talk to on on-campus counselor in hopes to get a different prescription for my anxiety. i am on ativan, but it does nothing for me. i don't know if on-campus counselor's prescribe anything.
and i have so much anxiety right now (drop in hours open in ten minutes) knowing that i have to talk to someone about my anxiety (how ironic...ugh) i'm going to be pissed if they tell me they don't write prescriptions and tell me to go somewhere else. fuckfuckfuck. i wish i knew how to calm down. benzos plz?

don't know if your counselor can provide scripts, im not sure if they're certified to do that. However your campus should have a clinic for students that will be able to prescribe you meds. My friend gets some hydro syrup now and then when he gets a bad chest cold from our schools dr's/

ya dude councilors are like mail order degree educated fools, as a result they cant write scripts. You need to see a shrink cause on campus physical docs can be hesitent on perscribing stuff for menal conditions cause u really need a shrink to do regular followups on you and make sure no bad mental sidefx are occuring

so it ends up it was a mistake to go to the counselor. didnt know there was actual psyciatrist no campus.. but i did find out after 45 minutes of filling out papers and shit and then the five minute talk with the counselor who told me, downstairs is where they write the scripts. so then i went downstairs. waited for another 30 min. talked to some strange lady who thought my last name, phone number, and where i was from were all absoultely amazing. then told me there is only one psychiatrist, and everyone loves him, but if i dont, i can tell her. then she looked at me and went 'you wouldn't come tell me would you.' i didn't even answer. i don't know? anyway. so now i have an appointment at 330 tomorrow. she was like 'please say yes. please please' and i said i had class. but she said she'd write a note. so now, tomorrow, i'll have to explain my whole god damn sitaution anxiously for my fourth fucking time. better be the last.
lawl. and on the forms i filled out, 'any suicidal thoughts or thoughts of harming oneself' and then the counselor was like 'i have to ask you just one question' and asked me that. 'no' of course i'm going to say no. and then after i said it, in my head. i said 'lawl, always.' wtf would they do to me if i told them yes? nothing good, of course. but immediate, unwanted attention. that's fo sho.

i suggest going to a walk in clinic. tell them you don't have a family doctor even if you do. it takes about 2 minutes to register, then all you have to do is wait for a doctor.
tell them you have PANIC ATTACKS. if you don't, they may just prescribe you anti-depressants. tell them your anxiety in certain situations causes your heart to beat fast, and it feels like your going insane and dying. you get sweaty palms, and you are almost always forced to leave your current situation because of it (work for example). if they try to feed you anti-depressants, tell them you have done much research and you don't believe in them. you would rather stick it out then feed yourself that shit.
good luck

the only problem with walk in clinics is that they will only give you one month's worth of prescription. so you will have to go back there every month and hope you will get it prescribed again. this is the advantage of using your family doctor, but im pretty sure it would be a lot harder.
