I would like to know weather I should listen to an endocrinologist, who is concerned about my diabetes, to take Prozac for binge eating and depression. This doctor believes I am depressed and that I need to be treated, but he is not a psychiatrist. I have a bad sleep pattern, but most of it is self inflicted. I am a bit anxious sometimes when I am not rested. I don't like my current full-time job and I have low self-esteem because I need to lose about 20 pounds to reach my ideal weight. My mother is bi-polar, I take care of her, and I don't have a boyfriend. I am not the happiest person, but will these meds fix me or will they only make me lose my job by adjusting to them and going crazy. Should I wait until I speak to a real psychiatrist and until see wheather my nervousness, anxiety, weakness, and dizziness's is due to physical problems (such as thyroid, iron, and diabetes), or should I try Prozac?? I might be bi-polar. I have no idea and I need help. I am going nuts!
