Answers:
Yes, I have a few times. It's hard to get out of that downward spiral of depression, but if you can force yourself...and do things to better your life (work, go to school, be independent, surround yourself with good people...etc.) it gets easier. It's taking that first step out of a funk or depression, that is the hardest.
P.S. I just want to add that meds are not for everyone. You'd be surprised what you can do to make yourself feel better without medication. I'm not knocking it....I've tried three different meds, and they just weren't for me. Some people do need that extra boost, though....and there is nothing wrong with that. I felt extremely loopy on one particular med. I feel, for myself....without meds, and improving my lifestyle...I can think more clearly and feel good.Health Question & Answer
