This is probably not what you want to hear, and I hope you don't get discouraged. But there is no quick fix for mental problems. It's a journey.

You won't leave the psychiatrist's office "cured", unfortunately. There will be lots of questions and possibly lots of different meds. Some may help, some won't. There are days when you'll take one step forward, only to find yourself taking two backwards.

Sometimes meds work for awhile only to poop out later.

Then there are some of us who are allergic to some meds, we have to be taken off of them, get our systems cleared, and start all over again just like day one.

It gets very frustrating. But hang in there. You have to do something. And you are moving in the right direction.
