To be honest I don't want meds either. I told my dr whatever you think is best I will do so if there's some psych med you want me to take. He didn't prescribe any after I said that though. I'm scared of the side effects like weight gain because I'm obese already. And then I take pain meds and don't react well to them so how on Earth can you safely mix narcotics and SSRI's or Adderall? Years ago I was put on Welbutrin and had seizures. Little did I know that shouldn't be given to someone with a history of seizures and I had grand mals as a kid. Elavil also made me having trouble breathing and go numb around the mouth and couldn't move and that was at the lowest dose made! Yet I'm terrified all that may be held against me since I'm not on psych meds but applied for SSDI for both mental and physical probs. Like are they going to say I didn't try to get rid of PTSD because I'm not on meds? I do go to therapy weekly though, was twice weekly. I don't even understand why they are sending me for a consultative exam for mental when I see my T weekly unless its so they can harass me over not being on meds.
