I'm so sorry, K. I'm just now catching up (hectic few weeks); I'm so proud of you. For knowing what you need to do, and for being brave enough to share it. HUGS, love. xoxo .-= metalia´s last blog ..The Wedding, as Told Via Fake Q & A With a Bridezilla =-.

I know that had to be so hard to share. Not only are you helping yourself by sharing, but I just know you are helping someone else by writing this too. .-= Sensibly Sassy´s last blog ..Don't pack the "Clipboard of Fun." =-.

I had a period of depression also a few years ago and medication was the only thing that lifted that awful fog. You made the right choice for you and I hope you are feeling better and better each day. xo .-= Kristie´s last blog ..The evolution of lunch =-.

You are not alone.

Not even close.

I don’t think you should feel weird about being medicated. I think my medication makes me a better person.

You are in now way responsible for your depression. It is a physiological imbalance. It is a disease. You take medicine to get better. It is nothing to be ashamed of. If you got pneumonia you would take medicine too.

I'm actually in a pretty bad place right now, myself. I suppose above all things, you should know how not alone you are. .-= Noelle´s last blog ..New Word Tuesday =-.

Congratulations on being so proactive for your own health and well being. It’s hard. Damn hard. And I totally understand the struggles you describe here. Heck, I was even a psychology major, and I STILL felt like my body and mind had failed me/I was selling out by admitting that I needed medicine to return to some semblance of normal. I don’t think I will ever stop wishing that there was a true diagnostic test to SHOW depression (a blood test or an x-ray, suitable for framing in your home as proof that yes, you actually do need medicine!). Be well.

Better living through chemistry. From one depressed on meds person to another. I hope your meds start working quickly. (((hugs)))

You so made the right decision…stigma schigma (did I spell that right? )
