I guess I was saying that loosely. The last few times I asked for help medication was discussed first. Also, the last time I saw a therapist medications were discussed in the first session. My primary care physician recommended medication/exercise/therapy in that order. Medication and therapy haven't been working well for me and I suppose I am a little fixated on the "why" of various treatment methods.
