I can understand your fear of taking meds. Many times we don't want to think or say "oh, just medicate it will be fine". But I do believe that meds can help and it doesn't mean you have to be on them for life necessarily. I've been on meds a few times for depression/anxiety. Once I've felt that I've gotten through the worst of it, I taper myself off (with doctors approval) and most times I find I'm doing well without them.

You are doing the right thing by keeping an open mind about your self care. I'm proud of you for doing that! Wishing you much sucess hon!
