went to see my psychotherapist today and did not feel it was at all productive.
She seems to pick on every word i say. Told me that 'i will change when i want to /am ready to' and that i seem triumphant that i am thinking about giving up the nardil because of sideeffects because it means i will remain depressed. Also told me that the way i put myself down and am scared of any one in authority who upsets is the reason why i remain depressed.
i felt really upset with the way she spoke to me. I don't know what to believe anymore. I don't feel as if i am making excuses which keep me depressed. i don't want to feel like this anymore. I tried to explain to her that i have always been suffering low selfesteem and suffered from rejection sensitivity and that i feel it is biochemical. As much CBT as i have tried it never works. Its hard to change such an innate sense of misery,
What do you think? Do you feel depression should be treated with medicatcions or do you believe in this theory that we are depressed because unconsciously we do not want to help ourselves?
