The problem with meds is that they give you no understanding of what causes your problem and how to fix it. They are a crutch and not a real solution.
Top this off with (in my case) my doctor requiring me to come back every month for a prescription, which costs 70$ per appointment, and meds are a lousy deal.
CBT though, gives you understanding and tools to fix your situation, and I can highly recommend it.
