personally i fear meds, and i wont take them even as bad as my anxiety is sometimes. Ive had two T's so far and neither of them suggested meds. They believe in cognitive therapy. And I believ in it too. If a T suggested meds right away i would be suspicious of his training. i dont believe meds is the answer. I dont want to depend on a drug to help me. It seems to work for some ppl though.
