I'm a little concerned. Today I went to my p-doc and she said that my T talked to her about decreasing my meds. She suggested this so that I might get in touch with my feelings. I"ve been feeling so depressed in the last several months and really just barely gettting by. I don't show it on the outside, but I've been struggling. I figure she knows that info, but I'm at a loss of what to do. Even regardless of whether I keep taking the meds or not, I'm a little concerned I guess that she's not happy with my progress. I guess all that keeps going through my head is that I'm not doing a good job. Honestly, I know I haven't made allot of progress.. I'm not really sure why I haven't. Its frustrating for me, but I had hoped I guess that she wouldn't notice. Anyways... I'm not sure what to do.

Did you tell all this to your P doc when you were told? I would surely discuss it with your T, though, incase she'd said something and you missed it... This is common, btw, if a T thinks meds are masking and preventing work from being done. If you go along with the decrease, make sure the T knows where you felt you were before ...so she can keep a better eye on you after!

It's one of those things you ;might not know till you try? ((((hugs)))

Maybe you can give it a try and monitor how it is working. You can also increase them should it become problematic.

I am sure it is not that she is unhappy with your progress but would like to do what she can to make it easier. Everyone goes at their own pace in therapy and she knows that. There is no good or bad job in therapy. Please try and not stress over it. Take care, I hope the reductioin in meds helps.
