I am a bit pissed and jealous right now. I've seen three different professionals about my depression. The first two couldn't prescribe anything, only give me therapy. This latest one cam do both. I've only seen her once so far though, she wants to wait at least one more appointment before she gives me any prescribe. I've tried therapy off and on for a totally of about two and a half years worth of therapy. It's not working. I told her that.
Yet yesterday, my husband went to his primary doctor for something totally unrelated to depression and anxiety, yet his doctor automatically prescribed him antidepressants, because he thinks my husband has depression or anxiety. What the heck?? I do have both for sure and I've been trying to get help for about four years now, and yet all I can manage to getis therapy that doesn't work! I've been trying to see about getting antidepressants for about a year now and still haven't gotten anything. Yet my husband doesn't even try and he manages to get then. I understand he does have his own problems and if they make him feel better, then great. I'm happy for him. But that pisses me off and makes me so jealous because some days I have to FORCE myself to get out of bed. Yet no one takes me freaking seriously and wants to give me anything to help! I mean maybe if I had antidepressants, I could focus more on therapy and other things toget better. But at this point, I can't, and therapy isn't working. So how am I struggling to get antidepressants, yet my husband, who's never seen a therapist, automatically gets a prescription??
