    I'd make an emergency appointment with your GP Wayne.

    You need to handle this with precision. Given your other post regarding your overall wellbeing, it might be that this drug is making you feel worse.

    Please contact your GP.

    Yes please call your doctor or go to an emergency room. They can help you do this safely.

    Is this why you feel so low, Wayne? If so, contact your GP as soon as possible as they need to either switch/remove it or offer you support through the side effects.

    There should be a Crisis Team phone line for your area. It will be on your local NHS or council website.
