well, my doctor isn't the type to just agree with anything. Then again, she is on the NHS and doesn't get paid to give out drugs. In FACT mine was very good and took me through non-drug methods on the grounds that drugs have too much long lasting effects on what might be a limited depression.

The mind is so powerful. I am beyond grateful that I made it through to the other side, that my head stopped swirrling, that i eventually saw the light at the end that I never thought I would see. I am even more grateful that I was taught how to notice the signs of an on-setting depression and fight against it. I have been lucky. I mean - I watched my husband die in front of me six months ago and yet have some how managed to keep myself out of a full blown depression. I have had moments when I start to slip and weeks where I have been teetering over the edge BUT having survived a REAL depression I now know there is a light at the end of the dark moments. However, I had to make it through the first one first to know that.
