Suggest Therapy For Anxiety & Depression
I am having an issue with finding a psychiatrist in my area. Currently, I see a licensed therapist once a week via web chat sessions. She has been my therapist for over 15 yrs, so we have a good relationship and she knows my entire history and is willing to speak with any psychiatrist regarding this. What I am currently after is to be put back on a low dose of Wellbutrin XL with a small supply of low-dose Xanax for prn use. I suffer from anxiety and, more recently, but to a lesser degree, depression. I do not have a vehicle at the moment so if there is any way to obtain a prescription via the internet, that will be the best for me.

Hi
welcome to HCM
As I can understand from the information provided, you are stable with the prescribed drugs for the condtiton mentioned. But you want a prescription via internet so that you can continue with the same drugs.
Well, a wise advice would be to discuss your problem with a local psychiatrist in personal, and convince him regarding the benefits of the current medications you are on. Only a doctor can write a prescription and obtaining a prescription via Internet is illegal on both the parts, therefore not at all advisable.
I am sure a psychiatrist can understand your problem and should be able to help you.
welcome for further suggestions.
