My T sees progress. My friends see progress. My family sees progress. Objectively, I see progress.

But I don't feel it. My T advised me to stay on my meds. I fail to see what my antidepressant is doing considering I'm still very much depressed. The abilify is just as ****ing useless except for one fact I can't ignore: I haven't fallen into delusional thought patterns since I've been on it. So, I'm sort of worried about stopping that one. My T said this is a routine thing for me, to quit meds for whatever the reason and try it out without them. Every time I end up back on them. So now I'm debating.

Correlation is not causation, but not falling into delusional thoughts is significant. Could anything else be contributing to this?

((((Sò leigheas)))) Be careful with what you decide. Your meds may be helping you more than you realize. I'm sorry you're not feeling better

Its hard when you don't feel progress. It's encouraging that others do. Try to trust that whatever you decide to do about the meds. ((hugs)) kit.
