Depression or not?😓

Question

Im scared of being diagnosed as depressed, which is making me not want to visit the doctors..
But I feel sad, damage my body mentally and physically, surely theres another way?

Answer

I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety in my twenties. Wish I would have gone sooner. Being treated and starting medication was the best thing I ever did!! It'll be worth it, I assure you!

Answer

There is nothing wrong with having depression. Honestly the worst thing you can do is try to hide it. Talk out loud it's okay! You are not the only person who has had negative thoughts or worried. You surely not the first or the last person who will or could be diagnosed with depression. Your not alone talk to your doctor, family and friends.

Answer

23 here. I have depression, stemming from a multitude of other issues. I am medicated. My mother has a personality disorder. Depression is not anything to be messed with, and a psychiatrist can help you figure out what you want and need in your life. They're professionals who know what they're doing. trust them. :) 
You will feel better after you get help.

Answer

It runs in my family and so because I'm ttc I'm off of them and it was the worst mistake bc everything angers me and stressing out even more then I should.

Answer

The mental health stigma is bogus and there's nothing wrong with being depressed. Get the help that you need as your means allow. There's no shame in that.

I'm 30 now and struggling with depression for 18 years so far! There's ups and downs and that's ok, we al so the best we can.

Answer

I suffer from depression...I tried to hide it when I was younger but things got really bad when I was in college...freshman year of college and then again junior year. I've had some really dark times, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel! I'm 25 now, and while I still have really difficult times I'm doing much better!  The good days dar outweigh the bad. I know it can be hard to talk about but it's important to speak to a doctor and try and get help. Being able to mask the pain isn't a sign of strength..asking for help is a sign of strength and bravery. Good luck!
