I've been struggling with dysthymia for 5-6 years now and I quit a year long stint of essentially classic psychotherapy about a year ago. I have been doing the med thing all this time but have not found anything that works and I'm wondering if I should go back to some talk therapy despite firmly believing that this is a biological condition. I'm wondering whether those of you who are in the camp that think this is a physiological condition (most of you, I would think) still talk with a professional about it. Not just your psychopharm doc of course. If so what sort of style does this therapist use? My friend thinks I should talk to somebody about the fact that my life is going nowhere despite the fact that this is a disease that has not responded to therapy in the past to great extent. Thanks for any help.
