| all of your symptoms are classic signs of depression. many people are more disposed to depression after a break-up. in fact, a lot of people believe that divorce can be emotionally compared to dealing with a death. you might have a lot of changes to deal with, too, and that can be very stressful.
technically, if you do disagree with something your therapist says, it really is okay to say so. you might find their answers enlightening. i do agree, however, that you should trust your therapist. they are there to help you get to where you want to be, and they do know what they're talking about.
don't worry if you're not feeling better just yet! anti-depressants often take weeks or even months to become fully effective. you will still have to work to get there, but trust that you will come out of it as healthy as ever. just give it time, and do things that make you feel happier. your neuro-chemistry will follow. |
