In my expereince and my T's urging, I have managed to get through therapy w/o anti-anxiety/depression drugs. It could have come in handy but my T encouraged me to try to work through this if I could. She keeps a good eye on me and I trust her. There are times that I think I would like to take something (and I have nothing aginst those who do)but I usually pull through it ok. However, my MD has offered me a script a couple of times. He is a really good DR but that's all he knows.
So if YOU feel you really need it, get it from a Psych MD. You wouldn't let your family doctor perform surgery on you, right?
Once again my very (humble?) opinion.
