Tell me about it! I am slowly emerging from a period of depression. Fortunately I was able to take a week off of work and saw the doctor yesterday and she has put me on Laroxyl (Amitriptyline) which seems to helping, for example I had 13 hours sleep last night when recently I have been lucky if I got 5. This medicine has worked well for me in the past and I have faith in it. To anyone who is suffering from Depression I advise, DONT try to brave it out on your own and ignore the arseholes who say Pull yourself together! or Think yourself lucky you dont have Cancer, an injury, disability etc Even the well-intentioned types who say Think about nice things or Take deep breaths/drink a glass of water are more harm than good. SEE A DOCTOR and take the medicine they prescribe. The modern lifestyle is to blame for a lot of Depression I feel as all these targets and goals that people are set, benchmarks that they are supposed to measure up to, and the destruction of individuality which is sacrificed to that modern Idol The Team where they may be penalised not on their own achievements or lack of them but dragged down by that of others over which they have no real control. Stress fathers Anxiety which then gives birth to Depression. So to all out there who are suffering Depression or have just come out of the Dark Night of the Soul, I feel your pain. To those who work with or know a person who is Depressed, especially in the workplace, cut them some slack.
