Hi Yellowfrog ~ I have to agree with "Coco" ~ Please have your doctor refer you to a good therapist. Believe me, therapy does work.
I have clinical depression, and I've been depressed since I was a small child. I didn't receive treatment until I was in my 20's and that included a stay in a mental hospital. I thank God for finally getting treatment because it was the best thing I ever did for myself! Since I have clinical depression I have to stay on an antidepressant forever, but I don't mind because I feel so much better!!
Please contact your doctor -- you will NOT regret it. Life is SO good, and you deserve to ENJOY life. And you CAN enjoy life thru therapy, I promise!!!
I wish you all the best. Remember, you DESERVE the best -- God bless and take care. Hugs, Lee
