When something isn't right a long period of time, it's easy to lose perspective on what being well looks and feels like. It may be well worth it to explore your options now while it isn't urgent, until waiting until something changes and you can't deal with it anymore. Therapists don't prescribe medication- the best they can do is refer you to a doctor or psychiatrist. They can often answer questions about medication though, and help you decide whether that path is right for you. Therapy isn't about medication, it's a different tool altogether.

I've found that this is one of the big reasons that many people I know don't seek help, or waited (too) long to do so. Especially for people living alone who can acceptably 'curate' their existence when around others, it's very easy to lose perspective on what is 'normal' or 'healthy'. It's made me wonder if it might be good to consider going to a psychologist something akin to a yearly dentist checkup.
