[quote=akekaomen;3035124] My psychiatrist has told me that there’s nothing more that can be done with medication. I’m on a combo of two anti-depressants, anti-psychotic and anti-anxiety meds. Not much room for changes with these. So she says it’s about therapy.

Wow, you've got a lot going on! Can you take one week off? Or several days in a row off just to catch a breather? I realize that may not be possible. It just sounds like you could use a bit of rest. Yikes!

As for the psychiatrist, that's all SHE can do. A different doctor could very well do better. That's what happened to me. My nurse practitioner said I was out of options and to consider disability. I went to a psychiatrist who turned out to be flat-out crazy. The second psychiatrist worked out very well. He lowered the dose of the anti-psychotic, switched from the extended release version to the regular version of an anti-depressant and added a 2nd anti-depressant. I take anti-anxiety meds as needed. At the next visit, he kept the same meds but changed the dosages a little.

Maybe you need different meds or different dosages of the meds you're on. I encourage you to see a different psychiatrist.

As for your therapist, does s/he help you go through the cognitive therapy exercises during your sessions? These sessions are for you. You control what happens in them. You can tell your therapist what you want to do for that session.

Keep us posted. We're rooting for you!
