Are you diagnosed with depression?I aren't. I went to the doctor several times and talked to psychologists but it has not been very intensively yet, to come so far that they also diagnosed me with depression or borderline or anything. But I know that I am, also many people told me I am (teachers etc at school). My life is very weird, seriously. Everything is really vague, so unclear? But I will be planning an appointment in the future, so when I get diagnosed or not, I will let you know here or you will be able to read along with me in my diary. I chose 'other'. How about you?

You don't go to the doctor? I am wondering... when you got your son, did you have postpartum depression? I am not sure if you are depressed now, it will also affect you after the delivery and switch into postpartum. My apology if this sound completely non-sensical.

Yea. I had my postpartum depression. I didn't like it. I'm not one to cry, but this depression made me cry.

It must've been very hard for you. I hope it won't repeat itself again. And with support of your boyfriend, I think everything should be a little bit easier for you. *loads of warmth*

I think you are or else you wouldn't be here. You'd be somewhere having a good time, what you don't have, am I right?

not ALL doctors are bad. granted there are a great many who just down right suck, but then again there are some who are just wonderful. my pdoc is on side of being great. we don't always agree but he does what is right, even if it does piss me off at times.

I have not always been able to visit a doctor, but I am happy I have a sweet doctor now, though the medication he gives me don't help me one bit or I just need to wait a year to see how I am doing (but no changes till now). He has so many patients, that it's like he is just quickly giving out a recipe and I wonder whether or not he makes mistakes in this 'quickness'. The last time I went I had to almost stand outside, waiting more than an hour untill it was my time for him to see me. Yet, many who had those many people visiting would feel stressed, he wasn't. He was sweeter than a doctor I had before... Ah, don't want to remember.
But yes, not all doctors all the same. And I think also that they are trained (perhaps) to not burst in tears or something when a patient isn't doing great, I mean... wouldn't that be unprofessional?

I say it depends on what's happening in your life. My mom is on medication and it worked for her. However, child services wishes to stress her by trying to throw her in jail and take us away, so her depression has come back and her medication isn't really helping her.
