My experience of depression is different from yours -- mine's pretty much constant. However, I do not believe you are alone in your experience. What concerns me is your depressive episodes becoming more frequent and intense.

Earlier, you were considering going either to your GP or to the counselling services at uni, yes? If you decide to go to the counselling services to discuss these developments, The Byzantine's suggestion of bringing records or having records sent to them from your prior caretakers is an excellent one. If bureaucratic friction makes that too slow, consider composing a brief Treatment Summary of your own to present to whoever sees you.

All the best to you, Carrie! Stay safe.

i did have a pretty constandt depresion for about 3 years but then i got "better" for a while and now its come back weirder than ever !

ahh alas i havent made that dreaded appt just yet.my excuse being i dont start back for another month and still dont know my timetable so once i have any idea of when i'll be free then i intend to..emphasise on INTEND.no promises :P heaven knows how i'll be feeling in month.
but if/when i do make an appt i must remember to do that!even just print off a few posts from pc,reading back on them is even helpful for me.

hope your doing well ^_^

Hi ~ Even if you were able to make an appointment with your MEDICAL doctor, it would be helpful. Perhaps he could put you on an antidepressant for the time being until you could get to a therapist. It could be a temporary fix -- you really should talk to someone about it.

I've been depressed all my life, so i've never had the highs & lows. It must be pretty miserable.

God bless and take care. Let us know how you're doing. Hugs, Lee
