Re: depression

I hope you can really open up to the Dr. It helped me a lot, but it took a long time to get to that point, much less even going there in the first place. I also had a few people telling me to just cheer up, but it isn't always that easy, is it? I hope with the right meds & the right MD you can find the strength within yourself to keep going without feeling like crying all the time. It's a hard thing, I know. I felt like that a lot, especially after my second baby was born. I've been able to get to the point where I can function pretty well and actually find some peace, and I hope you can get there, too. It's a start even just posting on a board like this. Just because other people have worse mental problems it does not make yours insignificant. Good luck & take care. Drop me a line if you like!

Re: depression

Hi,
A couple things that you wrote struck me -- I was similar to you when I was younger, being alone some of the time, but happy. And also the thing about not sleeping so well anymore.

What happened for me, was that I had quite a lot of stress, and I got low on B12, but I didn't know about the low B12.

It took several years to get replacement therapy, but after I did, the changes were remarkable. I mean, huge.

And, now that I'm getting the moons back under my fingernails, I'm even sleeping soundly with nothing more than a tiny melatonin.
