I am going through therapy through a rape crisis centre in my home city, my therapist is a trained psychotherapist so I am very lucky to have qualified help for just a donation.

She surprised me today as I said I had an appointment with a psychiatrist for a proper assessment and medication. She is not allowed to tell me what to do, but I suggested coming off AD's all together cos I dont think they're helping anyway, she is qualified to give me an assessment and says going to a psychiatrist on the NHS would give me labels such as bi polar, acute PTSD and borgerline as they are the signs she sees in me, but she says with her therapy over a few years I can overcome all of this and she doesn't want me to be labelled for life. She says this can cause more trauma and the reason I show all these symptoms is because I've lived in fear all my life and don't know how to be balanced, only either up or down.
I am going to ask my doctor if I can come off the medication slowly and see how I am.
My husand still wants me to go to the NHS psychiatrist for an assessment, any ideas or advice? I am a bit shocked really and don't know what to do. I would like to come off the AD'S though.
