Samantha10101,

I'm sorry to hear that your depression is as severe as it is. It sounds like you're doing the best that you can to try to live your life and take care of your child, but you don't seem to be benefiting much from the treatment that you're receiving. I agree with the other members who recommended contacting your doctor. The treatment of depressive disorders unfortunately involves a lot of trial and error, but I do think that it is possible that you can eventually find a treatment that will help you feel like yourself again. It took me four years after first presenting myself for treatment to find a treatment that put my depressive symptoms into remission. Unfortunately, I later had some problems with the treatment that brought me relief and went on to develop schizoaffective disorder, but those are different issues. My point is that even though finding the right treatment for a depressive illness can be difficult, some people do manage to find treatment that works well for them. I wish you the best of luck in finding something that works for you, and I'm sorry that you're suffering so much.
