Doctor prescribed me an antipsicotic med for children
I had my first appointment with a psychiatrist two weeks ago and he prescribed me a med that according to the internet is an antipsychotic commonly used for autistic children with behavioral problems. I’m very confused. I described to him my symptoms, talked about my life rn (that I am graduating soon with a CS degree which I regret, don’t know what I’m doing with my life, lots of stress from uni and being the only support for a family member with Parkinson’s, how I’ve been irritated lately). Now while I do get frustrated and irritated easily, I’m not by any means an aggressive person (one of the words he used). I don’t yell at anybody, I don’t hurt anyone or self harm, I don’t hit things or walls or whatever, I’m not having fights with anybody. For context, the day of the appointment I had to wait over 2 hours. Obviously I wasn’t very happy when I first came in. Idk if it had anything to do with that. Is this supposed to really help my stomach? Should I get a second opinion?
