[QUOTE="AK0603, post: 14858, member: 3417"] She didn't want to start BiPolar (BP) medications or Cholestrol medications yet (he's is really high X 2 years now) until she "gets his moods under control" as she said. She did an ultrasound on his heart, which was okay. He is going to call her tomorrow and just tell her he can not function on anti depressants, the Effexor was the worst so far. He was out of it 24 + hours, panic attacks, crawling skin, things like this. Felt like he was one step behind the world, and head in the clouds, type of thing. I am sure he's bipolar just from my difficult child and talking to dr's about these things. I hope that he can talk to the dr. about a referral for a pcp or something, or at least trying something that is a mood stablizer. I just never know with him, he's one way one day and another the next, and he's drinking more now because he can't sleep and can't take how he feels inside. Yeah he needs to be in counseling, rehab and probally many other things, but he's a grown man and I can't force him to do anything. EVER. So I gave up, and just try and support what he does try. And I am a member of Al-anon which helps alot. Thanks for the input. [/QUOTE]
