ProZac Withdrawals

I still haven't gotten a call from Walgreens saying my medication is ready for pick up. I went there yesterday but they said they were waiting for doctor authorization. I called my doctor and he said he had already done it and called it in. 

This would be no big deal if it was anything other than ProZac. I haven't taken any for a week now and I'm definitely feeling the effects. Racing thoughts. Insomnia. OCD is becoming debilitating. The desire to self harm.

It's making choosing recovery difficult. I'm still doing it- I don't want to go back now- but I feel as though I'm taking the "act opposite" skill they taught inpatient to a whole new level. I suppose I should feel proud of myself. I simply feel tired.

    I've had severe OCD/insomnia since I was a child and know how bad it sucks (my therapist says I don't stand a chance to recover from my ED if I don't get my OCD under control)...don't lose faith in yourself, they'll get your meds eventually (sooner rather than later, I hope)...keep holding on, we're proud of you for making it this long!!! <3
