I've been diagnosed with depression. I accepted the first diagnosis (eventually and reluctantly) a few years ago and used medication. I came off medication last year and it's back.
I've lived most of my 36 years depression free - this experience is still new to me and I thought I would beat it and be fine again. Be me again.
It's a living nightmare. I'm scared to go back in ADs incase I never get off them again.
I don't want to be unwell and I would never judge anyone else with a MH problem but i just can't accept that this is happening to me - I have nothing to complain about and I worry that my friends and family are now always associating me with not coping and being a bit of an emotional wreck. I don't want to be judged. I want to be well and believe in my own ability - surely if I restart meds I'm just on a roller coaster which I can't get off of?
