I found your comment very interesting. In the past I pretty much coped with adversity on my own. I would have short-term therapy that was usually more an inconvenience than helpful.

With this last depression I have spent 14 months trying everything...getting help, primary care providers, online, blah, blah, blah.

I really don't know if there was any difference between getting so-called help or just forging on. Just wading through.

I wish the best for you. You sound like a strong person.
