Meds can help you get to a point where you're able to deal with emotional stuff because it can blunt the intensity and frequency of the emotion. But, you are right in therapy helping.

Don't self-diagnose yourself with -anything- though. Don't make suggestions to your doctor either. Just attend and be honest and you'll get to the root faster. However, regardless of that, it takes a willingness to change.
