Both my psychiatrist and therapist are wonderful, they work in the same office, I've been seeing both of them for almost 7 years, they share notes and work together. My therapist said she'd fill in my psychiatrist on the trauma stuff that we talked about the last couple sessions, since it was my first time ever discussing it. So my psychiatrist will be aware of it before we meet today. I'll ask her, taking into consideration that, and the symptoms I've had in the past and the symptoms I have now, how meds have helped me (which they have immensely, I'm a lot better than I was through a combo of meds and therapy), and her knowing me for 7 years, what is her opinion on what I've been dealing with, and what should I be focusing on in therapy

I will let you all know what she says, thank you so much for all of your support Brentus and everyone here, and all of your input, I really appreciate it

That's amazing to hear! I'm so jealous you have such a great medical team! I'm actually losing my therapist after Friday. She's leaving the clinic and her main therapy clinic doesn't accept insurance, so for now I have to find, yet again, someone else. I've been through so many doctors and therapists (turnover, not them giving up on me although it felt that way at times) in such a short time it's not even funny. I hate the thought of having to start over with someone new. They have to have context, so I have to relive my past traumas and difficult moments with a new stranger. Oh well.

Point of this message is simply to say I look forward to hearing whatever you feel comfortable sharing with us about your meeting! I hope it is a really productive session!
