Hello Flowers -- We've not met yet. I feel as if I'm supposed to tell you that all this was not so bad, but I completely freak out whenever I have a car accident, however minor. So I empathize with how you must feel, especially having this happen in the middle of a serious depression.

I do think it is well to appreciate that your husband's first concern was YOU and secondly, the practicality of having the car work.

As Myzen points out, society doesn't understand very much about how serious depression can be. I believe that there should be a huge public education campaign, like for smoking and drug use and shaken baby syndrome -- but that will come too late for you.

I don't understand what your T means by getting you stabilized *before* you go on meds. I thought that the meds were to try to help us stabilize so that therapy, which takes longer to work, could do some good.

Please be patient with yourself, even when the people around you are not. As Myzen says, we have a broken leg of the spirit. I hope you will feel better soon.
