My parents finally gave in, and agreed to put me on anti depressants. They aren't working right, though. But i'm working with my doctor on that. I'm also going to be starting counseling in a week or two, so that should be helpful. My friends and family have accepted the fact that I have depression, and they're finally willing to work with me on it. I've had slip ups with cutting, but I have completely cut drugs out of my life. I'm really excited to see what things will be like, since I can finally get help that I need, now. Thankyou for all the support, everyone. It means the world to me to know that someone cares, and is willing to help me.

Glad to hear the good news! I hope the meds get sorted out soon, and the counsellor's a good one.

That's wonderful news! Keep trying to give the family more education on depression. I hope the meds start helping you real soon. Please let us know how it's all working out for you.

I had horrible side effects right away. A few days after taking them I was shaking uncontrollably, got a horrible rash, and started hallucinating. Still waiting for my doctor to call me about my new prescription. And my parents found a huge pool of blood on my bed, and now they think i'm suicidal. *sigh* Idunno. I just wish that I could make this depression just disappear. >_<
