I am doing intensive outpatient therapy at the moment and will be seeing a psychiatric Nurse Practitioner next week. I'm not sure that I plan to keep a T (or find one, really) after this IOP which has been immensely helpful. It's been so helpful that I think if I keep practicing what I learned, it should help a ton. They also have an 'alumni' group which meets a few times a week so that support system could still be there if I want it.
Not 100% sure what I plan to do with meds either (I am currently off) but I feel like I could use the help they will provide. I will talk through that with the NP and see what she thinks. I'd prefer to never be on meds but I am not sure if I'd survive another depressed state.

Yeah, when I stare at the ceiling / Five o’clock in the morning
I got one thing that’s on my mind / Got so much to do before we die, if I survive
So live it up, live it real good / As you should
We both know, we could be gone tomorrow
So tell me what keeps you up at night / Keeps you from closing your eyes, Keeps you alive
