One p-doc made a good point to me. The thoughts that cause bad reaction that cause anxiety and depression are hard wired in the brain. For some the hard wirig cannot be over come. I could sit in the chair opposite the p-doc until infinity and I am still the same. Hence my vote for meds. However we need better meds!
