I'll put it out there right now, you're not weak. Not at all. You're strong for continuing to try and seek help and a solution. If people think that, screw 'em. They don't really know you and the truth is, no one ever will. You're the expert in your own life and you know you're strong, so listen to you. A lot of people stay in denial about what they don't understand and/or don't want to know. Though, I'm sorry people in your life can't get passed that to see you're depressed. I hope the medication gets worked out, hopefully your T can provide valuable input on this subject. Who's ever prescribing the meds should have good contact with your T about it all, as it can alter the progress of therapy.

You're new here and I welcome you to PC. This is a good spot and I think you'll fit right in. Best of luck.
