I've had 2 counselling session so far. My next one isn't until end of February for to not being able to get time off from work. I didn't know what to expect from counselling. I just blab on for 50 minutes and feel like I don't get any thing back.
I'm on the highest dosage of mitrazapine now. Gp said maybe medication isn't for me if these don't work. I need something stronger. I can't last much longer like this.

Hunni, the increased mirtazapine will take 4-6 weeks to really impact. I don’t know how many ADs you’ve tried but there are a lot of options with meds and sometimes a GP can’t give you all the options that a specialist could. Also, counselling takes time and can get worse before it gets better. What im trying to say is that there are plenty of ways forward with your treatment - it’s just going to take some time (bear)

As Paula says, there are loads of options with meds etc. If your GP doesn't feel able to help then maybe they could refer you to psych?
Is there any way you could have your counselling sessions more together?
