I'm so lost

Hi,


I'm new to this board. I've been seeing a psychiatrist and therapist for awhile now. I'm on abilify and cymbalta, and trazodone for sleep. All this, but yet I still feel so sad and unsettled. I don't know what to do. I've been seeing the same therapist for almost two years. I feel like we have a history together, but at the same time, I don't know if it's doing its job... if my sessions with her were working, wouldn't I feel better?


I don't know what it would feel like if everything was "working," because I've had this sadness for so long. I don't know if I'm to "blame" for my sadness (I don't necessarily follow her suggestions 100%). I just feel like I don't know anything, like I'm so lost. I hope this makes sense.


Thanks for reading.

Hi - I also see a psychiatrist for medications and a therapist for cognitive behavioral therapy.
