I’m just so tired of this illness I’ve had for 15 years now. In the worst depressive episode I’ve been in in a long time. Yes I’m medicated. 

The therapist was just so abrasive and kept interrupting me. Kept telling me I need to stick to a schedule. I need to work out. I should try mindfulness. She invalidated a bunch of things I said were bothering me. She had no idea what the medications on I’m do, even though she claimed to have been a therapist for 20 years. I only went to her because she accepts my insurance and I can’t afford private practice right now, so my choices are limited. 

Ugh I didn’t get any advice that I couldn’t get my from my own mother - “Are you sleeping enough? Do you work out? Have you tried meditating?”

Not helpful! I ended up just sobbing after the appointment. I feel so alone and it was a big step just to try to get help. I requested a new therapist from the clinic but they haven’t called back yet, and who knows if that one will be any better.
