Calling the OP a 'hypochondriac' is so unhelpful and quite offensive. Do you even realise that you've just told them the equivalent of 'stop making shit up, you're being stupid'?
OP: I think you're doing the right thing getting help, though as others have said, getting a second opinion (even though you seem to have clicked with this doctor - which isn't easty to do, I know) may be a good idea. Medication can be helpful, but you do want to be careful what you take and why, and from a first visit...I dunno. I don't have much experience with this sort of thing, but I do know that serious disorders like schizophrenia and bi polar need to be treated, and treated properly, meaning effective medication combined with mental health care.
I hope you can find what you need, you sound like a good person, and I hope you can find the best way of dealing with this situation soon.
No I never said they are making anything up. You must not know what that words mean. It means that someone assumes something is wrong when things are not. So I have no idea where you found your information but that is not what the word means. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypochondriasis
I know what a hypochondriac is. I would have thought that was merely common knowledge.
You saying the OP is a hypochondriac is saying that they are falsely creating (ie making up) an illness. Your advice to ignore a professional could potentially be dangerous for the OP.
"Your doctor is using you and you are apparently what they call a hypochondriac. You are worrying too much and that doctor sees that he can take advantage of you."
I fail to see how trivialising the OPs concerns is a helpful move. While I agree that antipsychotics are not to be taken for no reason, I think that someone with training and experience is far more qualified to make that suggestion than you or I.
I'm sorry if doctors have taken advantage of you, I cannot deny that there are some bad doctors out there. However, not all are and there is no grounds for telling others to ignore professional advice or telling them they do not have an illness.
I wish you would stop trying to interpret what others are saying and maybe look at what they actually mean. It just makes you look dumb when you are wrong. So please stop trying to paint me like such a bad guy and learn the words please. Thank you dear.
IIN my greatest fear is becoming a reality and I don't know what to do

Are you still going on about this?
I know what a hypochondriac is. I would have thought that was merely common knowledge.
You saying the OP is a hypochondriac is saying that they are falsely creating (ie making up) an illness. Your advice to ignore a professional could potentially be dangerous for the OP.

I am fine with you thinking I am dumb.
I did read your comment, and if that wasn't the meaning you were trying to get across, then you should maybe rethink your statement.
Sorry OP, I'll stop shitting over your thread now.

I will not rethink my statement to help you understand. The statement was simple and to the point. No underline meaning in it.
