Don't know whats going on

[Ericka1984]

Hi everyone, Im new on here and have a few questions. I used to use drugs, oxycontins, for five years, ecstacy, lsd, cocaine, u name it ive done it... but im off them now, and have been off everything except the oxys for about two years and the lsd havent done since highschool, which was 5 years ago. The oxycontins I stopped in june, then was on suboxone until two weeks ago. Everyone tells me I should be on anti-depressants or something, and Im starting to think I do need them. I go through crazy mood swings. Ill be real happy and in such a good mood, then if my boyfriend leaves the cap off the toothpaste, Im a crazy woman... I get very irritable for no reason, and get overwhelmed very easy. If Im at a mall, or a place with a lot of people I feel anxious, and have little anxiety attacks. I never was like this before, and I was wondering if you think its because of the drug use, or what? Either way, should I be on medication?

the drug use was probgably your way to selfmedicate before you knew what you had. first see a therapist or counselor and go from there. they will see if you need to be on meds.  dont listen to others just go with your insitincts. we ussually know if we need medsor not. but try the therapy first.
