I’ve gone to a very experienced therapist for 20 sessions now and I just don’t feel like I’m making any progress apart from gaining more knowledge. 
I even think my therapist is tired of me. Today she said “stop worrying and ruminating” and it’s just very discouraging to hear these simple solutions as if I don’t understand it myself and that it’s as simple as just deciding you don’t want to be unhappy. 
Right now I feel like this thing is out of my control. I don’t even have the energy for making food. I feel like therapist will tell you what to do but how to do it is a mystery beyond “sitting in the pain and thinking about it”. I’m hoping the medication route will be a better alternative. 
What is everyone else’s experience with therapists and medication?
