Hey guys,

I have felt in a low mood for the past 2 years, with fatigue, lack of interest, sleep issues and looping thoughts. I have tried most stuff, meditation, exercise, diet, self-help books etc.

This is a second wave of a big depression hitting me. Last time I got medication which I took for 6 months and it really helped me. But I never went too long to the therapist.

Now I suspect its time to go to the root of the issues. I have written down all my thoughts on a paper which I plan to bring the psychologist. I'm afraid they will also describe me some medication. If that is so, will the same last medication I took work as well as now?

Anything another general to add regarding my situation?

Appreciate!

I hope your psychologist is a good fit. Usually when a medication has worked in the past it will work again. But not always... Psych meds are such a random thing; some work for some people some of the time. And what works varies a lot from person to person.

No need to fear being prescribed meds. You don't have to fill the prescription

I think you're doing the right thing. I really hope the psychologist suits you. If medication helped before, it will probably work again. It may be you didn't take it quite long enough for your body to get used to the better levels of serotonin etc.

Dealing with the issues behind it are a very good idea. People usually do better if they have help with their issues as well as medication.

Good luck!
