If you are still undecided then you aren't ready to be on meds. Meds won't cure you. You have to be in the right state of mind for the meds to function the way they are meant to. It took me almost 2 years of being on meds until I finally had my epiphany and broke out of my, almost, lifelong depression and anxiety.
Yeah, my doctor warned me that if I'm not in the right mindset about taking them that it's pointless to even start. I'm only undecided because I constantly have this feeling that I can overcome this without them until I realize that I've pretty much been feeling the same way for the last 4-5 years with very little signs of improvement. I haven't smoked in like 2 weeks and it's been a hell of a 2 weeks I'll tell you that much...
My first year of college I had to take a psychology course and essentially my psychology prof convinced me that psychotherapy would do a lot more for me than meds, and I went in asking for a recommendation for someone to talk to and instead he recommended I try lexapro. (kind of funny how a psychologist and a physician highly disagree with one another). I get free counseling with a psychologist through my university so I think I'm going to try a combination of the two. Heading back to the doctor for a prescription tomorrow.. | | Back to top |  |

this really is it, you have to be proactive. you have to want to change, and then actually go do it.
I'm taking a philosophy course focusing on existentialism and I'm constantly being haunted by the idea that this is by my own doings, that I am choosing to be this way. It's kind of truthful considering I was the one who let myself slip, but it's also motivating me to make changes to pull myself out of this.
So yeah, you always have a choice. You can choose to be depressed or you can choose to do something about it and work past it. Obviously some days its hard just to pull yourself out of bed, but you're still the one choosing to do that. | | Back to top |  |

This just seems like lack of motivation or being stuck in a rut to me, not depression if 'thats kinda been always'. If you think you're genuinely depressed now, what happens if/when you really do get depressed? | | Back to top |  |
