Psychiatry/Medication Question Finally ready to seek help- where to start?
I have experienced PTSD induced dissociation since I was a teenager, with it peaking in a mental health crisis when I was 17. I was diagnosed with DPDR then. I am now in my 20s and while there were a few years where it was okay, the past year or so has been very difficult regarding my dissociation. I struggle to recall basic information and memories, like the date or information I usually have access to mentally. I feel like I am experiencing life through a haze and cannot fully enjoy it. I am at the point where I feel I need to consider professional help again. I feel very overwhelmed with where to start and not feeling discouraged. What helped you? Talk therapy? Any medications in specific that I should ask about?
Thank you 🙏
