I know I have a bit of a different situation than most of you guys in that my T and pdoc are the same person. Still, I think this question applies to everyone here who takes meds as well as does therapy:
How are meds discussed in your sessions, if at all. My T today when I asked for him to renew my prescription briefly asked whether I'd want to get off of it. Somehow, I feel like the whole medication thing gets left out in therapy a bit. At least for me, it would be helpful to say things like "this thing might be less anxiety inducing because of meds rn, let's try to work on that while not being that triggered". I am grateful that my T at least mentions cutting down from time to time, I did also wonder whether you guys have to bring stuff like that up or have to consider it yourself, but of course that's a bit different if your T is separate from your pdoc.
