I honestly wonder if that isn't part of the illness. I mean the self doubt. I am off meds right now thanks to my insurance co. Some days are better than others. But the point I'm trying to make is that I think many of us feel guilty for needing meds when others don't, being depressed when so many others have it much worse ( in our warped view of self), and many other ways we compare ourselves to others and come up short every time. I hope my answer makes some sense. Like I said some days are better than others.
