After living with depression for many years I am at the point were medication is only limited in treating some of the symptoms.
The illness has taken so much from me and I have lost a lot of my ambition and fight I once had. I don't have a lot of help or support and recent bad experiences in counselling have made me even more isolated.
I often can't make it to my GP on days when I am feeling particularly bad and have to cancel appointments. But I am determined to go on my next scheduled appointment.
I wonder if anyone else can relate to living with long term depression and how it changes you over time. I feel that it has taken my sense of hope for myself as I have gotten older. I'm now 39.
