I have been in therapy with the same male therapist for over a year now. He is nice, is good about not reacting when I freak out with anxiety( i have generalized anxiety disorder and on effexor) Lately, i have been very frustrated with the progress i have made in therapy and I feel like giving up on everything I've worked so hard for. My anxiety has improved and I have moved into a dorm in college where I come back only on the weekends. My anxiety used be so bad that I can could barely socialize and never thought I would be able to dorm. however, lately I've been so sad and I cry all the time not because I am dorming but because I feel depressed. My psychiatrist says I should try Remeron but the part of me does not want to start another medication. I get so frustrated when I complained to my therapist and he only says you should go on Remeron or you have had so much progress don't give up yet keep trying etc. I don't even know how to really explain how I feel every day but I feel like I need some support in my decisions coming up. Should I start another medication and start Remeron? There is a huge part of me that just wants to crawl into ball and stay in bed and give up because I've been trying to beat this inside for so long and even though I've made progress I just feel like the pain some times is so unbearable and no one understands even my therapist
