Ive been on anti depressants for years, have had extreme obsessive thoughts.

I go back to the doctor today to tell them 150mg of sertraline is not working for me. Im so tired all the time even after a full night sleep.

All they doing is sending me for another blood test and maybe change my medication after that.

Tbh theres so much more I wana say to them that I cant squeeze into a 10 minute appointment.

Half the time I dint even leave the house. I just have no drive or motivation. Then sudden bursts of energy.

I want to be referred to a psychiatrist but they won't do it.
