No one knows, unless they are going through it themselves.

I had a great doctor in PA where I used to live. She is actually a breast specialist who I went to see for a lump. I broke down and was crying in her office over my anxiety and depression. She ordered me some test and made sure I saw a therapist that she recommended. She even called to check up on me and routinely had me go in for blood work. I felt like she really cared. It made me feel better knowing she was there. I believe you just need to find the right doctor. I live in CA now, hopefully I my new doctor is as caring as she is. I also start seeing a counselor next week!

A good doc like Samscar mentioned is key, just hard to find. You are worth the effort to keep looking!

I fully understand the hopelessness. I stopped posting bc there were too many people, in many different groups that I relate to which made me feel like a freak bc I have too much trauma even among folks w trauma and pain so clearly, the problem is me.

We do not choose infliction of pain by others nor if our brains do not produce enough of a balancing component.

If you are a person of faith, make sure your therapist is not an atheist. It will not work as well.

May God bless and keep you.

Go to different doctors until you can get meds which are cheap and therapy and group therapy too. I wish you the best don't give up.
