((((Mirla)))) I understand why you would be apprehensive about taking the medications, because, yes, they are pretty powerful pills, and yes, many do have really uncomfortable side effects that you might really want to avoid. I don't think that that is unreasonable.
One thing to remember, though, is that the depression can change as you get older. Either you can have more stress which can change how severe the depression gets or you can have hormonal changes which can also give you troubles. Just becuase you have "managed" until now doesn'tīmean your depression will continue to be as manageable later. Your therapist might be seeing warning signs and might have brought this up for that reason. How are you doing now?
