> Why don't you see another dr to get your referral? Or even try your own dr again and make sure you make clear that even if you are too depressed to tackle deep and difficult topics, you still need some supportive help to get to that stage.
Yeah, I do think I need to try again. I find it very difficult to think clearly in that kind of situation – I usually forget half of what I wanted to say. I really don’t want to have a debate with the doctor about the theory because I’ll lose. So I need a different strategy.
> Please don't anyone slap me down or start a debate over this, but I personally really don't believe that meds alone will get you to that stage. Just from my own experience. But having that special T connection might.
I have no intention of slapping you down! I agree with you; meds alone won’t get me there. I don’t know about other people. But I find the relationship in therapy extremely helpful. It gives me a focus that meds just don’t give me.
