I've been to psychiatrists that for some reason don't like using medication..it's like why did you even become a doctor then? You might have just been to a really unhelpful doctor. Is there any chance you can see a different one and explain how you are feeling and that you feel that you really need medication? I have learned that you really need to be an advocate for yourself. Not all doctors know best and most doctors don't agree with each other on a lot of treatment choices. I hope you feel better, don't let one doctor make you feel like you can't or don't deserve help. If you explained to them what you said in your first post I really can't understand why they think just therapy is appropriate.
