deelacy,

welcome to the forum. there is a "resource" thread at the top of the forum with many help sites, phone numbers, books etc.. please review it and see if any can help you.

Did the doc prescribe any meds for you? Are you taking them as he/she suggested?

It is also important to learn daily coping skills to deal with your emotions, DBT and CBT are in the recource thread.

keep posting we are here to listen and support the best we can.

Peace
Trina

Welcome to the forums

I am sorry that you are not feeling well. Depression is a hard disorder to control, but the good news is that for many with the right meds and a good counselor things will be just fine.

I have been depressed for 13 years and it has been a heck of a road and I still have times where it is bad, but taking a life is NEVER the answer. Life always gets better. Please seek the help that you deserve and I believe you want. Also please keep posting here as we are all here and we do care.

I hope and pray that I have helped you in some way.
