Alright, I looked all over trying to find an appropriate board to post this on and I'm not sure where this fits so I thought I'd start here.
So a year ago in 2008 after I graduated I moved to Nebraska for college, I'm from Iowa. Well, my dad made me move back because he found out about my boyfriend and also because of money issues with out of state tuition. Ever since I've moved back to Iowa and have been living here again and going to school here, I've been really stressed out and constantly emotional and crying/sad/upset stomach because I really don't like it here and I'm only here to finish college because my dad made me. Not only that but because I miss my boyfriend so much, between that and struggling to be comfortable here, it has just caused me to be stressed out constantly and cry a lot and be sad/upset a lot. I don't know if I'm depressed or just stressed or both.
I'm wondering if I could go to my doctor to get medication to help. I know this is nothing tragic, but I wish I could be more happier and comfortable and not so down all the time and stressed out. I just know my mom and stepdad have been on anti-depressents since a few deaths in the family and it has helped them.
I'm just at a loss and I just wish something like that could help me but I don't know if that would sound crazy to a doctor or if they would even prescribe me anything. I don't even know what it would be that they could give me but I just know I need something to help.
What do you think??
