Seek another therapist soon that will help. As much as family and friends sometimes try to help unless they have a mental illness themselves they will never fully understand. But it helps alot just having someone listen or give you a hug. Tell them they can be there for you to just hear you out.

I have 3 younger sisters and I don't think they'll ever fully grasp my BP even though my mom also suffers from it. I sometimes feel like they think I can just put a bandaid on it and everything will be okay.
Do you think you need to change your meds? Higher dosages? Is there anything that makes you feel better? Going for a walk, reading, working out?
