Hi there,
My situation sounds similar to yours...I've suffered from PTSD among with many other things which have caused my clinical depression. Medication isn't an instant cureall....it is something that works gradually and can take time. I've been on 3 different medications and different dosages...everyone's needs are all different. Medication can help, but it does not take away what you are depressed about, rather calm the nerves a bit. Whatever you deside..you don't have to be on one for ever, but must ALWAYS consult your doctor before deciding to discontinue use...
