Hi spikes. Does your therapist know some of what you write about here?

I recall you posting about stopping your medications and being worried therapist will tell your psychiatrist. Are you still taking any of your medications? If not, I frankly don't know what you'd even need from a psychiatrist. If I were in your shoes, I'd tell your therapist why you quit medications. I think that definitely needs to be discussed. If your plan is to lead a life without medications, you need to be super duper up on coping and healthy living skills. Your therapist can teach them to you. Or even if you know a lot of them, she can work with you on perfecting mastery of them. That is just a start. A therapist is a great support and guide for anyone (even those on medications) to process stressors and triggers and move forward with goals in life. I imagine you have some goals in life? If not, you can work with her on why you don't, if that's good enough for you, etc. Are you unhappy with your current situation? How can you find a way to find more satisfaction with it? Or work to change it?

If coping/health skills and therapy are not enough to stay mentally well, what are your action plans during a period of crisis?
