My therapist wants me to get evaluated for medication by a psychiatrist, but I'm!
Question:
My therapist wants me to get evaluated for medication by a psychiatrist, but I'm not real sure I want to?
I decided I needed to go to therapy about a month ago, and finally got an appointment.. I went today..
She said she wanted me to get evaluated for meds, but when I was 13 I had mishap with my antidepressants... I have a hard time taking anything now and don't know if I really want to take the chance of screwing up again.. I don't trust myself..
I don't feel bad enough to do anything at this point in time, but who knows what may happen...
I thought if I did get meds my boyfriend can help me out, but I feel like that will too much pressure on him... he has his own meds to take.. (he suffers from depression as well)
it's not his responsibility to distribute my pills, right?
What should I do?
please help me.. this is a serious question, so please don't **** with me..
thanx

Answers:
I started out seeing a therapist nine years ago (clinical psychologist) and he recommended seeing a psychiatrist to be evaluated for medication. I was suffering from major depression and suicidal. I was on a lot of medications in the past but I am down to two and doing very well. Finding my therapist was a gift from God. Give yourself some time.
