Re: Hi everyone! A very worried newbie here
Welcome, has your doctor not offered you talking therapy in tandem with medication? I am of the mind that they should always be offered together as medication can just act like a plaster if you have never explored the roots so to speak. Also do not be afraid of trying a different medication, some simply do not take well to certain medications and it can be a patient trial and error.
