When I first started out on this journey, I was all too willing to take anything and everything the good doctors (professionals) gave me in hopes that it would magically "fix" me ... Those doctors were more than willing to prescribe it too! ... I actually told one of them that was working on my next magical concoction, that the only difference between him and a street dealer was that he had the blessings of the FDA! ... Boy, did that ever piss him off! ... I've been med-free for over 10 years now, and what I've discovered over time is that it's been the "talking" part of the cure (with a qualified therapist that really understands long-term trauma) that has worked best for me!
