So...the depression seems to be getting worse,not better.

6. Good advice.

Setting aside a little time for yourself is an excellent coping mechanism. Sometimes it's hard to remember to do that. Thanks for the reminder.

Getting a second or third opinion is definitely an option, and stopping the meds when you start to feel better is a trap many fall into.

So glad to hear you've made such wonderful progress and were able to get off the meds. Did cognitive therapy help?
