So confused. - March 7th 2010, 10:54 PM

Okay, so a few month ago the doctor put me on anti-depressent/anxiety meds called pristiq. My counsellor told me to go to these doctors, who are like a free youth clinic.
So, I guess I have depression/anxiety though she never said that. But anywho. I came off my meds as soon as I came home from a holiday I was on because I hated being on them.
I think I get more intollerance and discimination from myself than I ever would from other people. I am all for anyone getting the help they need, and think it's really important but yeah. Idk. I can't stand it when it's me. I guess I have a huge fear of being like my mother, being insane.
Anways, my psychologist/counsellor understands why I went off them, but wants me to go back to the clinic. I keep telling her I don't want to, they will be grumpy at me for coming off the meds.
I don't really know what to do. Are meds worth it? I don't really wanna be on them.
