My situation?? I have anxiety and depression!?
Question:
Answers:
I think you need to ask yourself, why do you get frustrated when you see her. If it is because she touches on issues that bug you or make you feel uncomfortable, then you probably need to stick with her because she may be on to something. If you don't feel like she really understands what you are trying to communicate to her or if you feel she doesn't really care enough, then you should stop seeing her. Go and find someone else who will understand you better. As far as feeling bad about it, you can't. This is your mental health we are discussing here, you need to do what is best for you and that might mean changing doctors. If she is a professional, she will understand. Keep taking your zoloft, you need that for your checks and balances system in your head, trust me, I know all too well. I also know no matter how much you don't feel like it, you have to force yourself to do something, so I say excersize. It gets you out of the house and makes you look better, which in turn is going to make you feel better about yourself. Good luck with everything.

I feel like you do, I don't call people & etc. Still trying to find what works for me though, going on 20 yrs! I'm allergic to Zoloft, My throat felt tight, so..Good Luck
I was inthe same situation for a long time.
I searched for a long time to find a theripist i could really talk and listened to me as a person and not a case # or a discription in a file.
Just keep looking to find someone you feel comfy w/ and can really talk to then you will feel better goin to that person every week.
In the mean time force yourself out of bed to do things. Try going back to things you enjoyed and force yourself to modivate yourself.
Set reasonable goals for doing well in your life like if you can stay active for 2 weeks treat yourself to something you enjoy and is just for you.
The rewards could be a form of motivation, but don't depend on it. Just think you can do this and push forward w/ your life.
Don't give up cuz doing that gives in to defeat of your illness.
Good luck!!
STOP AND ASK YOURSELF WHY ARE YOU FRUSTRATED WHEN YOU SEE HER..IS IT BECAUSE IT'S UNCOMFORTABLE BEING ASKED TO FACE YOUR ISSUES ? THERAPY IS NOT MEANT TO A FUN SOCIAL ACTIVITY. I HATED MINE FOR THE FIRST YEAR AND DREADED GOING. BUT I KEPT GOING AND I DID GET STABLE.HOW LONG WERE YOU TAKING YOUR MEDS BEFORE YOU STARTED FORGETTING TO ? YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR STABILITY, WE ALL TAKE STEPS BACKWARD SOMETIMES, AND TAKES OKAY JUST START TROTTING SO YOU CAN CATCH UP TO WHERE YOU WERE.IF YOU KNOW YOU NEED THERAPY THEN GET BACK IN. YOU OBVIOUSLY STILL NEED HELP. Patience. Know help (Zoloft) is on its way, and look forward to it. How do you look forward to it? Think of an activity you used to enjoy, but don't feel like doing. Then force yourself to do it, as often as possible. Little by little the energy will come back. Learn to recognize the little changes that take place as you improve and learn to be motivated by them.
Take your medication religiously at the same time. Routine will help you remember. Do it in conjunction with one particular activity (perhaps waking up or going to sleep). Sooner or later, the routine will come automatically.
