Ales,
I read this blog today and thought of you. You may think you know what the author is going to say, based on the title but its a real surprise. The article may explain why your therapist is taking the approach that he/she is with you--and likely would NOT be fired by this blogger. Interesting.

SO ANGRY :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Being misunderstood by my T and then being told there is something wrong with me and I need medication makes me so angry :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: and apathetic....... :oops:

HI CB - Thanks for that article. What gets me is that she was never really quite honest about her feelings. Thats me too. Just last time, I went in as I am during the day, which is sweats and no makeup, which is me around the house (I'm between jobs and looking for work). I only dress up for meeting people - and therapy etc. But this time, I did not. Most of my clothes dont fit anyway now since I gained 10lbs in three months. Anyway, she wasnt quite honest so he really didnt give her the right dosage which probably made her worse.
Is that what you were hoping that I get from the article? If so, you're right on about me, my T has no idea how bad it really is. He asked me once about dark thoughts and I never really answered them. I'm like yeah, I have them. Thats it.
Sad though, this girl has a caring family and a job that seems to be helpful to her. I dont have any of that. Never did.

I probably have more in common with that girl/author than I care to admit, but I'm still NOT taking anti-depressants.

Hi CB - Funny thing is that the case resembled me in a lot of ways. I've kept darker stuff hidden even in therapy, mostly because we've just not really gotten down to it. I am the person who "refused the remedy", so its hard to hold him responsible if I failed at therapy or improving my life.
I'm climbing out of the crisis. I just try to stick to doing the three things I need to do and stay busy with that. I just get very easily discouraged and then can stop functioning.
Thanks CB for your understanding and sympathy. I'm getting more good things and concern from this board than anywhere else. :)
