ADHD meds cured my depression
And therapy
Both individually were more effective than antidepressants ever were.
Of the three if I could only pick one though it would be therapy
How???
To use a nerd analogy you wouldn't attempt to fix a system without first understanding that system.
Therapy teaches you to recognize the drivers behind your emotions and how to redirect mental energy in healthier and more productive ways. It rewires your internal dialogue.
Yeah, the right therapist can be a game change.
For me, actually having the words to express something and thinking more about why I avoid a situation helped me a lot.
