How should I ask for my pain medication back?

I had an intentional overdose last week on cocodamol. This was due to a number of reason and being abruptly stopped with no antidepressants for over 2 months and very stressful family issues. My mood at the moment is quiet erratic and changes very intensely but I am starting my old antidepressants again.

I suffer from endo which is debilitating when I have a flare up and as I was stupid enough to take an OD my doctor doesn’t want to give me anything for another week. I know it’s 100% my fault I asked if I could get anything weekly but he was abdomens to say no. I understand where he is coming from but I am in so much pain I can’t get out of bed.

Does anyone have any advice?
