Need to talk: If having concerns about your treatment plan, you do need to talk with your physician and your psychologist (you list "pyschology" in your additional information). Generally no one can "force" anyone to take a non-emergency medication. Your doctor may have prescribed it to help with depression, insomnia, anxiety, etc, but the decision to take it or not, is yours. You risk worse symptoms, though.
