How do i approach my doctor about my anxiety/depression and possibly getting started with medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anxiety & Depression: Speak simply and clearly to your doc. Your symptoms are very important and relatively common so he/she has heard about this many time. Consider behavioral approaches such as cognitive therapy before or w/medication. See www.relaxationresponse.org for some self-help. Peace and good health.
