Medication

So I was wondering who I need to go to to get a handle on my depression and anxiety. I’m currently getting a new therapist (I wasn’t at the old one for very long) A lot of people say I should go to my family doctor to get a reference. And when is it the right time to ask for medicine/ do I need medicine?

Hi Daisy2001 and welcome to the forum. It may be a good idea for you to make an appointment to see your family doctor who will examine you and assess whether medicine is needed at the moment. I hope all goes well with your therapy. Do stay on the forum where you will receive help and support from other members. Remember that you are not alone. Thank you and best wishes.

If in doubt Daisy go and see your Dr. sometimes medicine and therapy work very well together. You may need it short term. Please feel free to share exactly what’s on your heart. This is a very supportive forum x x
