Am I the only one?
| Mon, 11-22-2004 - 12:08pm |
Am I the only person who is to ashamed to talk about her depression? I know I need help but I feel too ashamed to tell anyone because before I did tell my dr. and he ask me why I am depressed, I don't want to tell him. I don't even want to take the meds because I hate side effects ,so i have been living with this for about 2 yrs now untreated and I feel I am getting deeper and deeper into this depression and now I am afraid I will never be myself agian. What do I do? Does anybody else feel the same way?

sorry about my rant.
all I can say is that even though it is hard to ask for help the only way to get help is to ask for it. I hope you get the help you need.

I want you to know that you are not the only one to feel this way. I have been in your situation. Actually I just started taking my meds for the first time. I'm very scared to be taking them but I could not handle being so down all the time because it caused me to pull away from everyone and I was angry for most of my days. I think that may be you should just try them you won’t have to be on them forever. Have you tried B complex that helps a little. Good luck

Sorry you're feeling so down, I've been there myself, I do understand what you are feeling.
I know you don't want to take meds because of the side effects, but you don't want to continue feeling this way. I know with myself the side effects did go away after time, but everyone is different. Please do what you need to do to feel better, you don't deserve to feel miserable all the time. Keep posting, there is so much comfort and support here.
