Hi there and welcome!
I wanted to welcome you the board and let you know that all of us here understand what you are going thru!
I wanted to encourage you to really try and talk to your doctor though hun.. In the long run the help they can give you will be worth it.. I promise.
I know how hard it is it took me a LONG time to finally tell my doctor too. What I finally did was not walk in and say "hey I am depressed" hehe I just took the opening when she asked me
" So how are you doing?" I just said the words "NOT SO GOOD" and that got it started. I just told her my symptoms at the time about feeling blue and not sleeping well etc and let her say to me.. "well maybe you are depressed" and then we could talk about it. Maybe that will work for you.
Glad you are here and post as much as you like,, there will be lots of support and understanding
*hugs
