Depression: Whats the Sucess Rate For Young People?
Posted: 09-15-07 09:23am

I'm 19 ( twenty in a month) but i'vve dealt with depression pretty much my whole life.

Lately its gotten a lot worse. i've spent more days in hospitals then I have in my home, in the past year. We've tried so many med combinations... prozac, effexor, zoloft, lexapro, seroquel, abilify, trazadone, ativan, visteral, risperdal, etc. Anything to get rid of my mental health issues and nothing is working. I've been in tons of therapy. And they are suggesting ECT... the only thing is mine is mostly due to PTSD and not chemicals... so am i wrong when i say ECT probably wont help me and the fact that I'm 19 and thats just sad? So whats the chances, I'm young and I'll spring forward here soon and make it out of this. I'm going to residential here soon for six-nine months. And i hope it works out... Wink
