Well, I haven't been "officially" diagnosed but I'm pretty sure I have it. Slightly depressed most of the time, for at least the past 10 years. For a long time I just assumed it was part of my personality, because I was so used to it.

It was interesting to finally see it as a "disorder" and maybe something that I could change. I've had maybe 2-3 major depressive episodes in my life and this does feels quite a bit different because I'm pretty functional.

Tried meds on and off for maybe 9 years. Currently off, and trying to work through things without them. If things don't get better despite my efforts, I might go back on...
