Hi October,

Thanks for the update, it takes courage to share our stories. I'm glad you went to see the doctor again and that you'll see him again next week. I take anti-depressant/anxiety medication and while they may indeed mask my symptoms, I'll gladly to wear that mask than feel the constant living hell I experience without them at times. I have a medical condition that warrants medication, full stop. But, when I'm on the meds I'm better able to care for myself and those around me, which means focusing on the therapy and other forms of mental health relief I practice.

Be gentle with yourself, you sound like a caring person. Please keep us posted
