My parents thinks all my problems are prescriptions and alcohol. I have never abused alcohol nor medications. They say I take too may of my medications, which is not true. 2 yrs ago, I had a bad car wreck and went through 5 medium size wooden post with my car. My airbags didn't deploy. The concussions hit all the parts ofl my brain plus I developed seizures , bilateral DVTs and PEs and other problems, such as TBI. I can talk for myself and make my own decisions. I am almost 40 yrs old. The doctors don't listen to me but they listen to my parents. My anxiety is very high along with anxiety. I have had most of the medications, but only a few work. I have chronic pain and chronic high anxiety. How do I make the doctor listen to me and prescribe the right medications that I know works? Thank you, Suzanne

Hello, Suzanne! How are you? I am very sorry about the problem that you're having.
If your doctor isn't listening to you, then I have to say that it's most likely time for you to find a new doctor.
As an adult, it is your right to see the doctor of your choice and have them listen to you.
I understand your parent's concern, but with the medical problems you've developed after the accident, they need to realize that medications are going to be required, in order for you to remain stable and have any quality of life.
What medications do you currently take and what are the dosages?
Does anyone else have any advice to add?
