Janet, I am glad you made an appointment to talk to someone. If you feel you might do something to hurt yourself, I hope you will get IMMEDIATE help, like going to the emergency room. We all know how depression can color our thinking. I know. The point is to get through it, to survive this current mood until it passes, either on its own or with the help of meds. But you clearly need to talk to someone and get support. I agree with Bob. Brief med appointments are not therapy. I know it is hard to get to know a new therapist, but it is definitely worth the try. And if the first one is not right for you, don't give up, interview another one. There is a therapist out there that you can trust and work well with. Take care.
