Sometimes it takes a long time to find a medication that works for you. How long have you been depressed , a couple months , a couple years ? Try going for a walk or something you might enjoy. You have to try to keep your mind off of negative thoughts . You feel stuck in the situation , I know exactly how that feels. It will get better , it always does. How long it stays that way depends on the individual.
You can get out of the hole with a little work , small steps.
Take care and I hope you find something that makes you feel better.
Thanks for replying.

I know, I am just that desperate. Its hard to find things to make me feel better. Sometimes going to the City to just walk around, sit in the park or find things to do. It's costly though and sometimes my legs bother me and theres a lot of walking to do. I like to go to restaurants, again costly. All other things I like to do are costly or I don't have energy, I have medical issues too. Hoping cymbalta will help eventually. My T. gave me a brochure about EMDR its a natural way to stimulate brain, I will look into that. I can't believe how down I am. Anyway thanks so much for replying that means alot to me. I will try to hang in there.
