[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ A therapist who says you “really need meds” is a crappy therapist. Seriously. Therapist should be able to help you considerably even apart from medication.[/quote] As a therapist, reading through ops posts I would guess the conversation was more a strong recommendation for meds and trying to help OP understand that sometimes, for some people, there are limitations to the amount of progress you can make without meds taking the edge off of the obsessive thoughts and anxiety (for example). [/quote] +1 And the therapist understanding that in some cases, taking meds can facilitate the therapeutic process. Also, for some psychiatric diagnoses, it would be malpractice *not* to recommend meds. You can’t talk your way out of biology, and I’m a huge believer in psychotherapy. It’s not either-or.[/quote]
