i am manic and i am worried about the medication i have just been put on
in r/AskPsychiatry
I’ll be visiting a Psychiatrist, and a major cause for most of my issues are drugs, can they tell my parents about it or are they bound by any confidentiality? ( I used to take them 4 years ago , haven’t since 3 so I don’ think I’m in any “sudden danger” for my parents to be informed. ). I’m 18 now.
