Can't you get a referral to see somebody sooner from your GP? Perhaps your p-doc could arrange to get you a script sooner than your appointment? What about emergency services if you don't have anyone suitable in the community?
I'd give you my Effexor, but my p-doc gives it to me because he thinks I need it. I dare say that everyone here would be in the same situation.
I am sorry that I can't help you there, but are you sure you have exhausted all the legal options?

there must be a legal way to get a new prescript, though i put much time into looking the best i can do is see someone in dec. no insurance (never thought it was needed until now)
i've tried 15 or so different pills over 4 years, and this did the trick 2 months ago. man now i am slipping back. it for me is a temp solution for perhaps a year until i get past the past and have a more secure future, effexor lets me focus on work. im hoppn mad at the system for not giving emergency aid! it is abusive.

I am not too sure how things work over there in the US as I am from NZ. I do understand, though, how much relies on health insurance... What about if you went to your GP? Might they be willing to re-prescribe a medication that you have been prescribed from a p-doc given how much you believe it is helpful to you? Would that be an option, or do GP's not really prescribe anti-depressants over there, or is seeing a GP still a bit expensive?
How come you don't get emergency aid? Isn't there any public fallback where you can ring someone in a crisis situation where they get you to a p-doc for assessment of the crisis (so hopefully you can get a script out of them)?
I am sorry I can't be of more help.
Does anyone else have any suggestions?
