Re: New Battle

I am reminded of a saying from AA. " if you think you're an alcoholic then you probably are!" So, if you think you need an antidepressant, you probably do! We need all the help we can get in the down times. Maybe talk things over with a therapist familiar with our needs who could suggest medication compatible with what you already take
And do you have a safe place to vent? ( besides us?) a counselor or group? A burden shared becomes lighter.
Mostly, keep the faith
