After posting this question I got to thinking, treating "trauma" is a vague statement. Right now I am most interested in treating depressive symptoms such as unrelenting suicidal ideation, sadness, and complete lack of drive.
I feel like therapy isn't doing anything more than getting me riled up and sending me out into the world triggered and hopeless. Today I bit the bullet and took 100 mg Wellbutrin SR.
I'm aware that it might turn on me a couple days but I needed something. there was some feeling jumpy and physical anxiety but I didn't feel cowed around everyone, and I made an appointment with my trainer. I also researched some stuff for grad school and GRE prep, which has been sinking off my radar.
I took a little klonopin to help with the raciness and ended up with a headache. Unsure if there is a correlation. I wonder what role the lamictal is playing too. I feel tired and undriven now at 7:30 but not all obsessed with killing myself.
Anyway I will take it again tomorrow. Until I get a doctor again who will actually see me I have latuda or rexulti in the wings. It's just good to feel alive for a little bit and I'm not expecting either to return any sense of drive.
