Hello Lybrate user For psychological issues such as depression and anxiety combination therapy is suitable i.e. Medecines along with psychotherapy sessions. It is a time consuming process and might take 6-8 months to bring about its effect depending on the severity of the symptoms. Try to keep continuing with the CBT sessions. Try to maintain a thought diary and write about your thoughts and feelings everyday. Also try deep breathing exercises and physical exercises to keep mind and body active and balanced. For any further guidance you can also reach out to me through the Lybrate app.
