I've had enough with this never ending sadness and anxiety. It's crippled me for the last 15 years. I don't remember a time without it. I've set up a meeting with my psychotherapist and I'm going to ask to go on an antidepressant. I've tried the therapy thing, but it just doesn't seem to be working. I'm simply too resistant, plus with my schedule I just can't always keep my appointments. I must admit that I'm nervous and scared to go on them. I've resisted for years. I just can't take it any more.

its so great that you worked up the courage to ask, the antidepressants should help you termendously. as for being scared and anxious, it seems like you've reached a point where teh meds are necessary, and will do much more good than harm.

good luck
