Today I had the intake interview for the dbt group at my college. This is also the second day in a row that someone from student counseling services had tried to push meds on me. I just feel like the risks severely outweigh the benefits for me and I'm joining the dbt group to be able to deal with things on my own and not have to rely on meds.

Also, is this even remotely true??

"People with bipolar disorder need to be medicated because the more episodes you have, the worse they'll get and the more meds that simply won't work for you."

I got told this today by a scs psychologist.

No one in real life understands why I'm frustrated she said that.
