Unfortunately, it's not always possible to get both treatments. I've never had cognitive behavior therapy, because there's no one who does it in my area, and no one's offered it to me. I've asked pdocs and psychologists in the past, but they don't know anything about it, they say. Well, one decided to try, and he told me to "Touch that bookcase," and I did, but it didn't matter because I was "dirty" already, and that was all he did. Plus, I'm told that if you're going to do CBT, you should find an expert.
