5 years ago I was diagnosed and put on a few meds. Didn’t really help. I had some good days but by and large nothing changed and I got to the point where I stoped taking them. I didn’t feel a change really. And I don’t believe depression is a chemical imbalance anyway. At least not for me. I don’t think there’s a problem with the chemicals in my brain. I think it’s just my life that’s causing it.
