Depression Advice

Hello Ladies,

I currently started taking anti-depressants and my first therapy session is on Monday. Did these treatments help you with your depression? Did prayer help you overcome your battles? I need some motivation. I am severely depressed and i am anxious to get the help that i need. Tell me what i need to know to get through this. Any personal advice is welcomed.

Yes I have major depression I lived with it my whole life and didn’t know. I thought I was just my personality, to always feel dread and unhappiness. Finally found a doctor at age 23 who listened to me and worked with me and we found the right medication. If this medication doesn’t work ask to try different ones!! Don’t give up. It will get better ☺️💜

I would ask your doctor about Trintellix. It worked wonders for me. (It will make you nauseous at first but push through if you do end up trying it) it’s a really modern medication and works really well

Antidepressants helped me stabilize my moods, but I still get major depressive episodes sometimes. It's just not every single day like it was before the meds.You've got to use your coping skills and keep up with therapy. For me, I started painting and it helps me relax. When my depression is so bad that I have no motivation to do anything though, I try to at least put on my favorite TV show so I'm not alone with my thoughts.Stay strong 💜
