Penny,
You did well at your session last night. I can relate to well with "I couldn't look at her, couldn't talk about anything else, and she just waited for me". Ugh.
But you started in on the conversation, and she gave you some reassurance, which should make it easier to continue with it the next time. Be brave. She sounds tolerant and wanting to help.
Meds. Hmmmm. I've been on them for going on 9 years. Lots of different ones. It is easy to feel that working through the side effects won't be worth it because it probably won't help. But, surprisingly, sometimes they DO help. I've read enough of your posts to know that you are pretty miserable. I would hate to see you refuse new meds and bypass a chance to feel better.
It is all so complicated!
