Hi, new here and struggling. I have a lot of emotional issues and not sure what to do. I’m in therapy and starting medication, but feels like it’s not enough.

Hi Dogmom2022 and Welcome.

You just took the first step forward by being in Therapy as well as on medication

and now joining a community of caring supportive people. However, these steps

are not the answers to full recovery but a pause in allowing you to go on a different

path.

Therapy will allow you to get to the root of your problems while medication will

dull that part of the brain that's bringing you emotional hurt.

Once you address these emotional issues and find a way to change them or at

least accept them, the burden gets lighter. I'm happy to have you with us :) xx

hello dogmom2022. Welcome to this page. There are a lot of wonderful people here who can listen and provide their experiences as a possible way to help.

like agora said, you have taken a first step. Make sure you keep up with your meds and therapy. Be open to how you are feeling. Also speak up if having feelings like self harm or highly emotional.

I have been in therapy for a little more than a year. I can say the last two sessions were great. But breakthroughs can be tough but so rewarding.

Welcome and I hope to hear from you soon.
