(joke) You are a patient because you have to wait a long time in the doctor's office.
Actually, I done not know how the word evolved.
Note that if the doctor knows your history and has not been pushing the pills all along, there may be a resaon to listen. If your body needs a rest from the stress in the mind, a short course of pills may help a lot. Sleep may not be the only effect of the stress.
On the other hand, a second opinion may not hurt.
One thing I recommend is that you get active in your recovery. Even as a student, you can look into an exercise program. Why? Exercise programs really help. I have used one to recover from a car accident about one year ago. It will make you feel better mentally, emotionally and physically. It provides an alternate focus and reduces the physical effects of stress. |
