ah gee ((((Miss)))) patience... patience.. the medication has already begun to work, it depends upon your body's need as to how long it will take it to reach therapeutic levels. It has begun to work in your system, so take heart.
Talk therapy is not a quick fix. Focusing on others is a type of resistance in therapy. We all resist at times. It's ok to focus on yourself, not selfish. It can be terrifying though, to begin to see how we really are. I think you are strong enough to do it!
