First time to see a Doc
I went to a general practitioner yesterday concerning my anxiety, depression and OCD for the first time. He immediately prescribed Celexua which I began taking today. I am so scarred that it won’t work or that it will make me feel worse. I described in brief detail my obsessive scary thoughts and immediately regretted it. That is what has been keeping me from going to the doctor because I can’t imagine telling someone about my thoughts. I feel overwhelming guilt about them every day. He even asked me if I would ever act upon my scary thoughts. It made me feel worse and now I can’t stop thinking about it. I regretted telling him anything because now he might think I am actually a danger to other people. He didn’t seem to get OCD at all and only wanted me to start on meds. Has anyone else felt pressured by doctors to take meds before going over other alternatives?

I never take any medication unless I choose too...The doctor can prescribe what they want, but, it is up to the individual whether they take it or not!!!
I would not concern myself with what this doctor thinks...I am sure he has seen many cases of OCD, and if he knows anything at all, then, he knows that you will NOT ACT OUT ON YOUR SCARY THOUGHTS!!!!
In fact, if I were you, I would not allow what you told that doctor to worry me in the least...I wouldn't even give it a second thought!!!!
Please just let this go...You are worrying over nothing...Trust me on this one!!!
I am sure that doctor hasn't given you another thought, and here you sit "obsessing" over what you told him!!!
I pray you distract yourself in some way, and get yourself a good night's rest!!!
You are going to be fine!!!
Goodnight...Sweet Dreams!!!
