this is just something out of curiousity,
do you think that the only, the best, the
whatever way to get through depression is
by taking medication for it?
and before i get an answer, depression,
when its chronic is not something that can
simply be fixed by taking madicine for a
few weeks, it would be a life long
medication to regulate the chemicals in
the mind.

Of course not. That's such an obvious no,
I don't think there's even a need to
debate it. Medication is not the end-all.

Despite what most people believe, if you
have Chronic Depression(such as i do) its
only the begining. Because there is no
underlying cause in the imbalance for
those with chronic depression there is no
true way to "cure" them of this, and if
the decide to take pills they may actually
find themselves relying on them to be
happy.

I'm currently suffering from post-natal
depression after the birth of my daughter
almost 5 weeks ago and i'm taking some
mild anti-depressants. They have really
helped me through this and i shouod be
coming off of them relitivly soon, i just
needed then to help me through thisfor a
little while because when i wasn't taking
them i wasn't being a good mother to my
daughter and she deserved me to be well so
i could look after her the way she
deserved to be
