I know I have made this observation before, but the symptoms you are describing are just the kind that therapy can help with ( and medications can only help to a limited extent) . I know you have said that you can't find a good therapist, but I'm sure there's one out there who's just right for you! From your posts here over the years, you have all the things you need to be successful in therapy: insight, an ability to relate well to others, and a willingness to look at things in a new way. From what you have said, the one thing you may not have quite so much is a willingness to change. But that can change and develop once you get into therapy and begin to see its' possibilities. Why not enlist the help of your pdoc and give it one more real try? I bet you would be so glad you did it.
