This forum is incredibly helpful. To combat depression, simply schedule a session with a therapist. If the medicine isn't working, consider spravato treatment.

@Tleigh I'm sorry you've gone through so much. That's a lot for someone to go through. I'm happy you're in therapy now even if it's on and off. You are still getting that help. I do the same thing. I go in and out. I think I'm doing better then I'm not. I also worry about what others think about me. I don't think I'll ever get over that.

Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you.

@JeniferSchwab getting outside does help. I have been in therapy on and off for 30 years. I don't think it has helped the depression very much. I've also tried many medications, TMS, ketamine, ECT and still struggling. I often wonder how much longer I can go on like this.

Living with major depression is really hard for me, like it is for many of us in here. I don't think, when in it, I'll ever recover from it. But I always do. It's such a dark lonely place to be. There's no scratching or clawing your way out of it.

When like this, I don't have my husband to talk to. He get's mad. Saying "We are doing good. Why are you depressed now!!". I have 3 sons I have only one son that will listen to me and talk to me about it. That feels good. It makes me feel someone cares.

That's why I joined this group and the others I belong too. I want to connect with people that understand what I go through and can relate.
