I'm sorry Glidergal

I've been dealing with depression for a long time too. In that time I have been on many meds. Some worked for a while then stopped. Some worked for a while then I developed bad reactions. At the moment my GP has me on an combination which works OK. The problem for me has been made clearer by the analogy of a battery. My battery (brain) doesn't produce enough of the right chemicals, so the meds help me there. Trouble is, sometimes too much is demanded of the battery by various issues. Then even the added chemicals can't help. I guess what I am saying is meds are not all there is. Perhaps there are other keys too?
