Tired of the way a lot of people dismiss anxiety disorders

[andybones]

l also went through the many SSRI's, what a terrible time that was. Being diagnosed with GAD from an early age, it has been tough dealing with all the judgement, even from friends and loved ones. Some, probably most; I feel that they simply do not know, so they are unable to relate and understand. Such as a good friend of mine, I recently told I take Xans for Anxiety and his response was "why? what do you have to be anxious about.. you are a chill guy". And he meant nothing bad by his response.. he just literally, didn't understand, and if not knowing the person well like I did, I may have mis-concieved it as being negative. Which is a possibility for ..some of the judgment that I feel from others (I can be overly-sensitive), but certainly not many. I absolutely hate going to the pharmacy, or having to call them to put a script in. The way that I get treated has caused me to switch pharmacies at times in the past. I also love the whole, lets make you wait until you are out of meds before we will fill your script. They neglect to realize not every month has 30 days, and need to account for more or less (Feb). And then you get there attitude because they think you are being a jerk.. because you don't want to wake up to no medication and need to go to the pharmacy to start your day. Sorry I don't want to keep rambling. But, I agree with all on here. We suffer as a whole (sad and unfortunately) and it's great to have others that can relate.. well not great that you also are being treated poorly, but great that we have each other. Threads like this just remind me how lucky I am to be apart of this community.

Sorry for off topic, is Dopaquel the same as Seroquel?
