> I dunnoThat's hard. I left one therapist who believed that meds did nothing at all. Since I was practically reeling from the discovery of just how much meds could do for me we really had nothing to talk about. I think I might have been able to deal with a therapist who disagreed with me about the relative value of meds - say one who thought that the disadvantages outweighed the advantages. Especially if they were open to letting me decide whether that was true for me.
But as I recall you've had some doubts yourself. Do you think your therapist has already reached a decision on this. Is that making it harder for you to think through your own decision?
