Hi
I've been seeing my therapist for almost a year now and she thinks I'm clinically depressed. So I was referred to a psychologist to undergo psychological testing. When he got my test results back, he said that I have a mild depression. And he couldn't diagnose me with anything because I have symptoms of attention deficit disorder to. So we'd have to do more testing. Now my process is going really slow because I haven't been to my therapist and/or psychologist(because of my mom). I really do believe that I have depressive disorder, but I don't know what type though.
Before my therapist referred me to my psychologist, she referred me to a psychiatrist. She referred me to a psychiatrist because she thinks I'm clinically depressed. And when I went to the psychiatrist, he prescribed me Prozac. But I never started taking it because my mom doesn't approve of it. And after my psychologist got my results back, he told my mom that she should reconsider me taking the Prozac.
Any who, I was just wondering if anyone has ever been diagnosed with any type of depressive disorder? If so, what was the process like? And how long did it take for you to get diagnosed?
Sorry if my post doesn't really make sense and/or if it's all over the place.
Thanks
