I think going to a t would help. I don't know how old you are... if you're still in your teens then I think you're wise to resist meds unless they're absolutely vital. However, I do know teens who've been succesfully treated with meds in adjunct with therapy, so don't absolutely reject any options your pdoc gives you, unless you feel he/she is not listening to you, in which case tread carefully.

Talk therapy really can help though, as can CBT, so it's worth asking for these options. I'm glad to see you being proactive about your health and asking questions. That's a really good sign.
