Sorry for the cross-posting. I posted this to the Just Getting Started section and it was suggested that I should ask my question here so here goes!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm so happy to write to say that I found a doctor that would prescribe Topamax for me. My family doctor wasn't willing to do it but I found a psychiatrist that would.
I held my breath during the appointment worried that she wouldn't go through it. I bit my tongue when she talked about addicts and wondered why I am not interested in attending AA.
But, she did give me two prescriptions - one for 25 mg and another for 100 mg so I can titrate up.
My question to the experienced folks here is should I go ahead and start on the Topamax when I can pick it up tomorrow or should I wait until I receive the hypnotherapy CD's and supplements? I still need to get those. Do most of you do all of the supplements and CD's with the meds?
I'm so excited to get started. The My Way Out book resonated so much with me. I could totally relate to what I was reading. It made me feel good to read that I am not a bad person because I can't stop with one or two glasses of wine.
I'm so eager to get rid of the shame of drinking one plus bottles of wine a night.
I really appreciate everyone's input! Thanks in advance for your responses.:new:
