I was going to therapy for about 6 months up until June about once every 1 or 2 weeks. My therapist was attached to the university I go to so when I went home for the summer vacation I couldnt see her. Next week I go back to uni and I cant decide whether to see her again. She said that she wanted me to come back this term but she couldnt make me, so it is my decision.
I got on with her pretty well and quite liked her style - i kind of looked forward to a session, even though it sometimes made me feel like s**t. The trouble is that I hate becoming dependant on someone to talk to, I feel like if I go back it will be admitting that I cant cope without going to therapy.
The efexor I'm on isnt doing anything for me except keeping me on it because of the withdrawal effects. I've got an appointment with the pdoc when I go back to uni (i havent seen him for 3 monts either), he's useless too. He keeps asking me what dosage I should be on and what drugs he should try next- I know I'm a med student but surely he should know more than me. He also said he was going to refer me to a CBT therapist, I thought I might try that out before I go back to my old one.
I really need to talk to someone, I'm just confused about who - any suggestions?!
