Healing Dreaming

My depression is being managed by Effexor and Seroquel for sleeping. The psychiatrist upped the dosage twice since I've been seeing him. We NEVER talk about anything he just asks me how I am doing and that's it. If I'm not doing well he waits until my next appointment to up my medication. <_<

 

The sleeping pill makes me DREAM a lot and I look forward to this every night. I feel that it's during my sleep that I'm really getting my therapy in a literal sense. I connect to my subconcious mind and I am being given understanding as to what my dreams mean. The healing process for me will likely come this way because I am not getting any outside help. Last visit with the psychiatrist, he said that if the meds (he had prescribed a stronger dose) were not doing it that he would send me to a therapist. I am sure this would be very helpful as many things from my past have been coming up for meditation. It seems that I need to gain greater understanding of myself and my life in general. I don't know if I'll ever feel "WHOLE" again. It seems to me that my mind is MUCH older than my heart. The stroke has struck my braincells a great big BLOW and part of me has been knocked down and I am feeling bruised.
