Depression and anxiety. A two-headed beast Mamamia
Just finished reading this post on Mamamia's site. Thought it was so good, I had to share.
The writer talks about realising they were depressed, and the experience of taking medication.

The facts and my musings about my life as a mother with mental health problems. How we all cope as a family. Parenting my child through depression and anxiety. Candid, sometimes bleak, sometimes hopeful, but always honest. One post won't tell you my story- follow me to get to know my life.

What a great post :) I feel like I was pretty let down in terms of meds. I don't agree with it anyway but I know it can help, I was on so many different things however that I was just a mess. Thanks for sharing this its good to hear some hope. Its funny how long most of us suffer before we realize that not everyone does.
Yeah- it's amazing how much we put down to being just our personality, or just normal, before we hit rock bottom and realise, "Uh-oh, this isn't normal" Sometimes others have to point it out for us, and that can mess up friendships :-(.
I'll go into my experience with meds in a later post, but, just briefly, it took a really long time of me not taking the wrong drugs properly, before I found the right drugs and took them properly, for it to start working! Wah! What a mouthful!
