Hi Lily,
My advice to you would be to tell your doctor exactly what is going on. Meds work differently for different people.
I'm in a situational depression. . .i.e. divorce, financial problems, etc. but the increase in my meds has taken the edge off what was a TERRIBLE depression.
Now I'm just dealing with a lot of issues, all or most of them hard, but I'm able to slug it out a day at a time.
This fall my depression was so severe pain was pounding through my body. That's gone, and I believe it's because he upped a med that had been working prior to my husband leaving me.
I for one really believe meds can help depression, but sometimes it takes a few trials.
I believe you CAN feel better. Please tell your doctor what's going on and you can post to me at:
