Are you seeing a T? Are you on any anti-depression meds? If not, I'd talk to your MD at the very least.

No. I'm not on any meds, let alone seen anyone for anything relating close to this. Although I do realize that something isn't quite right with me, I talk myself out of seeing anyone, (wouldn't have a clue where to start, who to see or even what to say...."Umm..Yes. Hello. I need to make an appointment because I think I'm depressed.??").

I don't think its denial or embarrassment that keeps me from seeking help..I don't think anyway. I do admit that it sorta scares me to be on meds as I've seen what it can do to individuals when not prescribed properly.
However, I also think that is something that I shouldn't allow to frighten me off as I am not giving myself a fair chance? I really don't know anymore.

Thanks for your concern SM. I appreciate it.
