I guess we'll see how long they last. She said that I might only need to be on then for 6 months. I guess it all depend on how they make me feel. 2 days in and I don't really feel any different, but I know they don't really work that way. Time will tell I guess.

I also began seeing a psychologist this summer. I only had 4 sessions but they were mainly to help me cope with the stress and depression of losing my job. I didn't particularly enjoy my therapy because I felt like I was the only one talking. I don't like one-sided conversations so that drove me nuts. I was put on Lexapro as well.
