RomanceClass.com AdviceYour medications will not cause you to be jealous. That's what the medication will help to prevent, your going off on her for no reason. Two weeks is too soon ... most medications take a month to get in your system. Have patience. If it's the right stuff for you (and it happens that some meds work better for some people than others, it's finding the right medicine that works for you) then you should feel better in about two weeks.
You should take it easy. You should stop yourself before you go accusing her. You have the control over yourself. You just have to exert it. When you're mad at someone, you don't kill them. You have self control. You just have to use it.
I'm glad she's seeing you through this very rough time and I wish you the best!
