I've never been to a psych before, or a therapist. But I am considering it one day. I was dxed at age 25 though..so I don't think it's any anger towards doctors and such. But maybe growing up voiceless in my mother's eyes didn't help. I don't know, I don't wanna blame everything on her....I wanna blame it all on Dex. LOL! I used to be on .75mg for many years, now I am on .25mg but I still feel kinda like I don't feel...ya know what I mean? Before I used to cry a lot on the high dose of Dex, now I don't even cry at all. I honestly don't remember being like this until I started Dex. But then again it was like 12-13 years ago, and I really wasn't very aware of my (self)....I think I was oblivious to lots of things.
When I had my clitoplasty done at age 25 I really didn't even ask any questions, I just cried and cried. I didn't know the .75mg of Dex have severely depressed me. I just thought it was just me. I had no support system. No one went with me to the visits, or with me to the hospital, heck my mom didn't even know I had the surgery for 3 years or so. Anyway I am extremely self concious. Kinda like I never feel comfortable in my own skin anymore. I used to though. Anyway I'm babbling now. Sorry.
I think I may be depressed, just not deeply depressed. If there is such a thing. BUT I didn't feel like that on Cortef...so I will soon try it again. I don't have insurance sooo, kinda hard getting a GP to do that for me.
Thanks so much for your response, lol.....take care
