Way to go on asking for a Friday appointment. It sounds to me like you have a lot of things that you want to talk about. Feel free to cover only what you feel able to do. As for the Pdoc, he/she sounded okey to me. It is up to you whether you want to take a medication. So he/she must leave it in your hands. I hope you can look at the advantages and disadvantages of taking a mood stablilizer. I wrote up a pros and cons list when I was trying to decide whether or not to take a medication for depressed mood. I am sure that your T would be willing to listen to your pros and cons list if you decide to do one. Good luck in your future sessions with T and Pdoc.
