Hi BuckVet09,

When I am depressed and I look in the mirror the sad, down feelings make me see myself as unhealthy and not looking good. That is one of the symptoms of the disease for me.

Have you felt any improvement in the depression on Celexa or Zoloft? Maybe those aren't the best medications for you. I know it can be hard to change drugs because of withdrawal, side effects, and the wait time to see if a med is going to be effective. Your doctor could probably help you decide if it is time for a change.

I went to the Amen Clinic in Newport Beach, California in March of 2010. I am not well yet, but I am making good progress.
