    I'm sorry. :(

    If you've been fighting this since you were 12, I think you need to see a different psychologist/therapist. You shouldn't have to suffer!

    I too suffered from depression/ptsd, took meds and eventually was able to exercise, just to clear my head and feel 'better'. I eliminated toxic people from my life and it made all the difference in the world. If you can do that, do it as soon as possible! I still take xanax once in a great while, so I'm not saying don't take meds, just that running/exercise helps my mood. I'm in control, I know I'm doing it for ME only and the endorphins from runner's high help a LOT.

    Good luck, I'll say a prayer that you get lifted from your depression soon! <hugs>

    I've been as far down as possible I reckon. I've worked very hard with counselling, trying lots of meds to get the right one and staying active. I'm feeling better than u EVER have and I'm ready to decrease my meds.

    I took a long hard look around and what was dragging me down. You have to be very proactive in changing anything that needs to change in order for you to be happy. You have to fight... But yes totally and utterly possible! Promise!
