I am seeing a counselor here, she's only an intern so she'll be gone by May. While I prefer someone more permanent I don't like the full-time counselor very much. Also I think the medication was for the depression and suicidal thoughts/actions. As of right now it is a requirement for me to stay at my school, at least until things get under control. While it does help with keeping the constant thoughts at bay I end up with chest pains for half an hour after taking it and when exercising which is extremely frustrating since I'm a long-distance runner.
