I'm in the same situation. My therapist agrees, and doesn't think that a medication change is called for, although my employer would like me to take a bit more meds if it means being more productive. My actual conversation went something like this:
"Do you think it's all that psychiatric medication that's causing you a problem?"
"I'm not on much medication right now."
"Do you think you need to be?"
And just maybe he might be right. The trigger might be situational, but the situation might be triggering my brain into old well known paths. Or maybe he's wrong and I need to make changes in my life, not my medication.
I really don't know the answer, so I let my natural dislike of medication sway me.
Good luck tomorrow.
