Hi, Rose!
I’m sorry you are having a relapse.
I need to ask you some questions.
You say that you are in the healthcare system, why is so hard to have psychological helped prescribed? It’s not fair that a person who is suffering can’t find this help. This is why taxes are, after all.
Can you explain a little more about it?

So, you gave up completely on meds. You know they aren’t a miracle but there are many new antidepressants now. There might be a new one that could help you. Maybe, if you give it a new try. I don’t know. What do you think? I tell you because you surely must be out of energy just now to try again with therapy and meds helped me just to recover this energy needed to be able to attend to a therapy and talks to a psych.

And finally, after all these years of therapy, did you get a clue about what triggers your depression or it is a biological depression.

Sorry for so many questions. I need to have a clearer picture.

As much as people may have good intentions, it’s not easy to understand what depression is unless you live it. So, I’m not strange with the reactions you get from other people. It happens the same to me. And I guess most of us.
